Step 1 of 1Step 1 of 1

Steps:

1. Two keepers, two goals, three balls, and two shooters set up using the diagram above.
2. The first player from each team comes out to the center and pass the ball back and forth using one touch.  The keepers have a ball in their hands ready to serve.
3. On the coach's call of "left" or "right" the players leave the middle ball, turn and sprint, receive a pass from the keeper and then turn and finish on the opposite goal.
4. The keepers must react and try to save the shot and any rebounds that are given up.
5. Players receive 3 points for a goal and -1 point for missing the target. Two teams compete against each other to a set amount of points.
6. Repeat these steps with two new players.

Setup:

• 4 or more players (2 shooters, 2 goalies).
• Set of balls, 2 cones.
• 2 goals

Variations:

• To add difficulty all passes can be made in the air.
• Use different turning methods each time.

Tips:

• The players are encouraged to use various turns to set themselves up to score.
• The players can also finish using power, curved, or side foot shots.
