When a player has entered through the gate the coach feeds the ball to the side where the first player has entered.
Player runs onto the ball and tries to score before the other player can make a challenge/block.

Shooting

1st touch shooting:

Encouraging 1st time shooting by using the correct technique to take the shot early and finish from close range.
