Angles
Back to Activities
Description
•Keeper starts in the goal. Change every 5 - 6 shots.
•Field players equally divided. Alternate starting positions every turn.
•Shooters must enter the box outside markers.
•Shooter strikes first time shot, other player looks for the rebound.
•Can progress this by giving shooter the notion to hit a first time pass across the goal to the teammate.
Coaching Points
•Shooters look to play the ball low and hard to the far post.
•Keepers:
- Make quick decision, ‘Can I get to the pass, or simply narrow the angle of the shot?’
- Get set and stay on feet just before the shot.
- Good body shape, don’t be falling backwards.
- Can they keep their courage?
- Can they smother shots or guide them around the post, not giving up rebounds.
