Blue players line up behind three cones outside the 9 meter line. The defender stands between the 7 and the 9 meter line, ready to block the attacker's run.

Center shot when running - Fast Break

The player at the front of the line passes the ball to the feeder in the middle and then sprints towards the goal. The feeder returns the ball, passing the ball in front of the runner, for them to run onto and shoot with a quick center shot! The attackers should go all the way to the goal line. Low shots are more effective!!

Fast Break - Combination Pass 2v1

The wing back must read the situation and decide on the best way to progress the attack. They can either pass the ball to the winger who has made a looping run behind them or they can carry the ball forward themselves for the shot on goal. Drill continues until a shot/interception has been made.
