A high volume shooting drill that emphasizes recognition and finishing
Set Up
Put 3 Offensive Players behind the cage and 2 defensive lines up top. Coach will start the drill by throwing the ball into an offensive player. The defense will get into the lower crease area and play a zone like defense . The offense will spread out and move the ball fast to try and find the open teammate for a quick shot!
Coaching Points & Principles
- Defense – Stay above Goal line extended, but need to have 1 player prevent the ball carrier from going around the crease, and the other be in a backside zone position to slide/move when the ball is passed
- Offense – Stay spread out, find space, and move the ball quickly to get an optimal shot!
Progressions
- A defender can challenge the ball behind the cage
