This Drill is here so when the attacker has passed the ball into the wide man, he can then run on to it and shoot and score as he would in a match situation although he is not against any defenders therefore he is not under pressure.
1- Make sure the attacker gets on the end of the pass from the wide man.
2- Try to get a shot away on target.
3- Try to score a goal in under 3 touches.

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
