Set Up:
12-15 players are set up in the attacking third, with players lined up at the cones. The Feeder begins the drill with a pass in to either one of the attackers. The defender diagonally across from the attacker releases from the six-yard box with the Feeder’s first touch, looking to block the shot. Play continues 1v1 to completion. The Feeder alternates between the two lines, varying the service (air ball, driven ball, etc.). The teams switch places after ten minutes.
Coaching Points:
1. Touch your last dribble off to the side in order to create a better shooting angle.
2. If the defender charges in, fake the shot and go by him.
3. If the shot is there, take it. Defenders will not go for your fakes unless you shoot.
Progressions:
1. Either defender can go to the ball.
