Organization
To set up the drill, you will need a goal with a goalkeeper. Build three positions, labeled A, B, and C, on the field. Additionally, create mini-goals between the designated locations as shown in Figure 2. Mark a pole in the penalty area.
Process
The drill starts with Player A dribbling towards the pole, performing feints, and then shooting at the goal. After Player A’s shot, Player B enters the field for a 1 vs 1 against Player A. Once Player C joins the field, it becomes a 1 vs 2 situation, with Player C dribbling against Players A and B.
When one team wins the ball, they can counter-attack and aim to score in one of the mini-goals.
Variations and Coaching Tips
You can add variations to the drill by making it a passive 1 vs 1 or 1 vs 2 situation. This allows players to focus on specific skills and techniques.
Coaching tips for this drill include encouraging players to dribble with speed and conviction, emphasizing duels and the importance of looking for the conclusion of the play. Additionally, incorporate majority/minority switching games after winning the ball to work on concentration, precision, and goal shots.
By practicing this soccer drill, players can improve their attacking abilities, transition skills, and shooting accuracy.
