What? Balls (min 6, more for better flow), goal, GK (more fun).
Why? Work on quick shooting, back space shooting, and quick transitions.
How? Player in RED will go through the entire drill, other 5 players (BLUE) will feed the balls. Rotate clockwise after turn.
- Focus on every shot equally
- Finishing should be quick
- move for the ball, ask for it where you want it (expect on 3 and 5)
- Let players be creative, ugly shots are still shots!
- HAVE FUN, cheer on good play, reward good efforts. Kepp score!
Advancements:
- Add in a "dummy" defender to put pressure on attacker
- time limit
- Only a specific type of shot or 50% forehand and 50% bakchand. BE CREATIVE
