Exercise Objectives:
The Four Goal "One
Touch" Shooting
drill is a great
finishing exercise
which players
thoroughly enjoy.
Besides from quick
finishing, there are
many components you
can emphasize during
this practice such
as;
high pressure
defending, man for
man marking, quality
passing techniques,
small group
possession and
much more.
Field Preparation:
2 even groups of 4,
5 or 6 players.
Area 30 yards x 30
yards
Cones
Supply of balls
Coaching Pointers:
Divide your players
into three even
teams of 4, 5 or 6
players. Identify
team by using
different colored
bibs.
Organize your
playing area as
shown in the diagram
above. Two teams
play while one team
rests.
The object of the
game is to score a
goal using "one
touch". The play is
free play but a goal
must be struck
"first time" and
must be all net
(ball may not cross
goal line on the
ground). When a goal
is scored, the
winner
stays on and the
losing team swaps
with the resting
team. First team to
get three straight
victories wins!
