COACHING SESSION: SHOOTING FROM AN ANGLE 2

	1) The server plays the ball into the attacker who must shoot first-time. 2) Here, he hits the shot first-time into the far corner of the net. 3) The player who hits the shot, after following the ball in, now moves into the penalty spot area to follow the shots in and look for any rebounds. Each player takes a turn at shooting and serving. LEFT-CLICK image to start animation & REMOVE MOUSE CURSOR from image to return to original image.

Organisation:
- Half football field + normal size goal. - Small group of players + goalkeeper.

Variations:
- Add a defender to close down and pressure shooting player. - Change to other side of pitch (to use other foot) or set up two simultaneous sessions with another goal opposite with two groups of players. - Alter the pass to narrow/increase the shooting angle and shoot using both feet. - For variation click here.

Tips:
- Concentrate on the delivery of the initial pass and the quality of the shot aiming always to hit the target (e.g. keep the shots low). - Really aim to follow the shots in and put pressure on the keeper.
