Play will start with a small combination play in a central zone, the movement of the midfielders looking to score will be made off of the forward pass into a target man. The player will be set by the 'forward' or high midfielder and have a touch to strike and look to score. Focus on the timing of runs into the space, not arriving too early and having good quality on the shot from the outside of the box. Server heads back into the possession area, player who shot becomes server.
This session progresses so the two groups in the middle of the pitch are against each other, three passes can break out a forward runner for the shot. This player can be tracked by a defensive runner from the other team who can apply pressure or get a block.
