Set Up

Put your players behind the goal, 1 at a time. Start with them facing coach on the end line about 5-8 yards away. The players will approach coach’s outside shoulder, and then back pedal until the next rep. Coach will move side to side so the players need to adjust their approach angles

Coaching Points & Principles

  • Approach the coach squared up, so as they move, you need to move laterally before approachign
  • Breakdown – Chop the feet and stay on balance as you approach coach
  • Always approach the outside shoulder
