Set up
Put 2 cones in front of the goal, about 5 yards apart. Add a line of players to one side of the cones. Coach will have the balls and will roll a ball in on the crease or make a pass. They players must scoop or catch, and finish quickly. Each player gets 2 shots, and then a new player does the drill.
