Wide play dribbling and crossing

Very good interactive coaching drills.
Matt

DESCRIPTION

The player are split into two groups with the blue players standing behind the black cones whih are placed roughly inline with the goal post and the red group are lined up behind the white cones which are placed out wide on the wing.

A member of the red team start with the ball and dribble around the white cones while at the same time a blue player runs around the black cones without a ball

When the red player gets past the last cone he plays the ball into the blue player who has a maximum of two touches before shooting.

The blue player then collects the ball and joins the line behind the white cone and the red player then joins the line behind the black cones.

The players must time their runs/ dibbles so the two players are working together and arriving at the end of the cones at roughly the same time.

 

COACHING POINTS

The idea of this drill is to help with timing runs correctly without the ball.

It helps promote wide play, team work, dribbling, timing runs, crossing the ball and shooting.

It can also help with goal keeping. 

To make it more differcult a defender (or two) could be intruduced to defend the goal.

The black cones could also be moved out wide so the attacking player must run into the box from a wide position.
