How do you get the shooters to pass

How do you get the shooters to passI have a 9 year old team and the shooter will not pass the ball and thinks that scoring the goals is important instead of playing as a team and getting closer to circle.

How to get my GS to control the D not my GA!

I coach a very talented bunch of girls currently going into year 6 so they are all 9/10. They currently play up by a year or two on some occasaions and have won 2 leagues.(just giving you the picture). My Ga is a very strong dominant player and consequently my GS lets her rule the circle and lacks confidence in herself. My GS should be controlled the circle calmly and GA playing off her? My GS is truly amazing but just need to finish her game of slightly! Any drills or tips! Thanks! Asked using Sportplan on Mobile

How to defend really tall Goalies?

We have finals coming up and the GS we are playing on is 6ft 5inches and we have no way of stopping her. She is strong and gets every rebound because she can out reach all of us. The only benefit is that she can't shoot very well and she cannot jump, although it doesn't really matter since she gets the rebounds and is taller then any of us can jump

Shooting options on tall goal ...

How can GS and GA help each other in circle when defenders are tall, intimidating and high contact (ie putting hand on ball when setting up to shoot, putting hand over face). Can GA stand between GS and GK to give GS a clearer shot?

Christine Stephen Coach, Australia

Defending a shooter who steps ...

I need some clarification please. In the goal circle if GS steps in towards the goal post and lifts her grounded foot, where does the defender defend from if the shooter stepped in before the defender lifted her arms? Is the 3ft from where her grounded foot was or where she stepped in to?

Goal Defence defending shooter...

Hello - i am looking for a few GD tips on the best way to defend a shooter that receives the ball a couple of ways as i always struggle to get around them when they do these moves! First way is that the shooter lunges out very wide (practically doing the splits) to receive the ball from the feeder on the circle edge and steps back closer to the net with the foot that is closest. I can defend her getting close to the net, but then she turns to the feeder and jumps and splits - thus always ending up close to the net. The second way is when the shooter stays quite stationery under the net, a couple of foot off the back line and holds her space there. she receives the ball by a large over head pass, so she steps back slightly on one leg to receive the ball from the feeder. what would be the best way to defend all the large overhead long passes to her, or draw her out? any help or some ideas i can try would be great! thank you :-)

paula xox Coach, England

When is it a good idea to step...

My year 6 girls are experimenting with stepping in to shoot a goal. I'm finding this to be a disadvantage as they are unbalanced on one foot and therefore inaccurate. The defender is not required to step back, keeping 3 feet from the grounded foot so the shot is put up into the defenders hand. I am a centre court player so I'm not sure what advice to give.

I have been using Sportplan now for 3 years and can honestly say that I have never repeated the same session twice. My girls are always focused and are improving every year. Thanks Sportplan.

Debbie Cross Australia

What a fantastic tool. The Chalkboard and session tools make an unbelievable difference in making training plans in both time and organization. I will be instructing all of my assistant coaches that this tool must be used for all sessions during the season, so that we may build a club coaching resource library.
