Read the late pass shooting, Shooting Football

Description

Players pass to the feeder player who has their back to goal and immediately follow their pass. The feeder controls the ball and waits for the attacker to be within a couple of meters before playing a pass either to the left or the right for them to run onto.

Players should react quickly to this late pass and run onto the ball, take no more than two touches and then shoot on goal.

An extra player should also position themselves in line with the penalty spot, ready to pounce onto any deflected/ rebounded shots.

Coaching Points

After the shot players rotate position (the attacker becomes the rebound player and the rebound player joins the back of the line).

Progression:

Feeder picks up the pass and throw it back. The receiver must now control the bouncing ball and then get their shot off on goal as quickly as possible.
