Give and Go Ground Balls + Shot

Set Up

Put balls in a part of the field about 5-8 yards away from the players. Add a coach on the other side of the field, and start the drill with a ground ball. After the player scoops the ball, they pass to coach, and get the ball right back for a shot.

Coaching Points and Principles

  • Ground ball passing – we want them to get their head up and move the ball quick!
  • Motion – get players in the habit of after making a pass, to CUT!
  • Shooting – Focus on placement, put a goalie in net if you want, or have them hit columns

Progressions

  • Have coach move around so they have to find the coach after the GB, build more awareness!
