Set Up
Put the players in a line on the wing, with the balls for them to start with. We are using cones to give the players a little guidance, but having a guided defender you don’t necessarily need them. The players will start to attack a space they see, and the coach will shade high or low. That will determine whether the player gets underneath, or gets over the top for a shot.
Coaching Points and Principles
- They want to attack the space the see free to start
- If a coach takes a side away they are trying to get to, they should naturally change direction
- Try to get a shot off as soon as you best the defender
Progressions
- Add in a 2nd coach and slide forcing a pass
- Execute on different side of the field
- Protect the stick while dodging
