Hi Olumide,

Here are some shooting drills you might find useful:

Shooting Technique: Focuses on the height, flight, flick, and finish of the shot. Players should stand about a meter from the net, take their time, and line up their shot.

3 Point Shooting: Players take shots from specific spots and must make a successful shot before moving to the next spot. If they miss, they start over.

Weave and Shoot - Relay Race: Players weave through cones, receive a pass, and shoot. It's a fun, competitive drill that can be timed.

Circle Movement: Players move around cones and take shots from different positions, improving their movement and shooting accuracy.

Shooters Agility Drill: Involves agility ladders and cones to enhance shooting under pressure.

You can find more details and coaching points for these drills on Sportplan. Let me know if you need more information!

I hope this helps,

Cam
