Description

Feeder  blue 3 passes the ball to blue 2 and he passes to blue 1 who shoots on goal using a hip height shot.

After the shot 2 and 3 change positions.

Although the keeper will know what's coming they should still attempt the disguise the shot.

Coaching points

• distance to opponent : arm length
• arm lifted to shoulder height, backwards, height as if to make a normal center shot
• hand should be sidewards, like you want to sweep the floor with the side of your hand
• let go of the ball and point to the direction you want to throw it

Progression

Add a defender.

1. Defender acts as if to block the normal center shot by holding his arms high to give space for the shot at hip height.
2. Defender holds arms high OR low : attaquer has to make a choice : center shot normal OR hip height.
3. Defender is really active to prevent throwing.
