Set Up:  

There are 12-16 players set up on a small field, starting on the end lines. To begin play, Player 1 makes a long pass to Player 2 and then runs to goal. Player 2 lays the ball off to Player 1 for a first time shot. After Player 2 makes his pass, Player 4 begins his finishing run towards the opposite goal, combining with Player 3. During the drill, the players rotate to the line that they passed to, and after 10 minutes, the players switch to the other side of the field.

Coaching Points:

1.  Hold the run in order to adjust to the pass.

2.  Just make solid contact on a ball set back to you. Don't overpower it.

3.  Deal with the goalkeeper as opposed to just hitting the ball at the goal.

Progressions: 

1.  Player 2 runs to the center, Player 1 overlaps and finishes a layoff pass.

Players Required: 
14-18
