Coaching
Pointers:
Divide your group into two teams. Identify each
team using different colored bibs. One team
provides the service, while the other team works
on finishing. On the outside (yellow team) are
placed at three stations.
Station 1, the player passes the ball
wide to the winger, then follows and takes his
place.
Station 2, the wide player checks for the
ball, turns and passes the ball to the player at
station 3.
Station 3, the player lays the ball back
for the wide player to cross (preferably on his
first touch).
The wide player move onto station 3. The player
at station 3 moves to the opposite side to
station 1.
The attacking player alternate attacking the
goal in pairs. Work on cross over runs,
attacking both front and back post. Time runs,
don't get too early!. Space, Ball Delivered,
then the Run, In that order!
Rotate group roles after 10 minutes.
Focus on:
Quality
Crossing. Out swinging crosses with pace.
Timing
of the runs.
Decisive
finishing, both ground and aerial.
