Soccer: Long Shots- Cone Drill

Great drills and practices thank you. Have used to great success for...
Steve, Clayesmore Prep School

DESCRIPTION

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON*

  • Four service points marked out by coloured cones on the edge of the area.
  • The coach stands behind the goalkeeper with a set of corresponding coloured cones.
  • The coach holds up a cone and the server on that coloured cone takes a shot from distance.

COACHING POINTS

  • Goalkeeper to react and get into line with corresponding server.
  • Goalkeeper to be set in time for the shot. Check how far down the line the goalkeeper is.- Are they leaving too much of an opportunity to be lobbed vs making the goal appear smaller?
  • Awareness of the goalkeeper in relation to the ball and the player with the ball.

PROGRESSION

  • Vary the type of service.
  • Move coloured areas further away from goal and the server does not play a shot themselves but plays their ball for a server on another coloured cone to take the shot to improve the goalkeepers movement into line.
