A great inside finishing drill that works on active crease play

Set Up

Put 2 offensive players on the crease along with 2 defenders. On the perimeter, put 3 lines (1 on each wing, and point, like a 1-4-1 look). There is only 1 ball in at a time. The 2 players inside must work together to get open on the crease. They can use screens, cuts, and deception to get their hands free. The defense must communicate and talk through to prevent any inside scoring opportunities. The perimeter players have 2 seconds to make a pass to an open teammate inside. If they are open, they must move the ball to another perimeter player. Play for 30-45 seconds at a time, and you should get a few looks inside.

Coaching Points & Principles

  • Defense – Communicate, check down when passes get pushed inside
  • Inside Offense – Move, work together to get open. Pop to space or cut to feeder
  • Outside Offense – Good Passing, find the right look
