Set Up:

There are 12-16 players set up on the small field, with players starting at the cones and in front of goal. To begin play, Player 1 makes a long pass up to Player 2. Player 2 lays the ball off for Player 3, running to the corner. Player 3 crosses to Player 4 for a finish on goal. During the drill, the players rotate from 1 to 2 to 3, and then to the opposite end line. New players rotate in for the shooters every five minutes.

Coaching Points:

1.  Player 3 has to hold the run in order to adjust to the layoff pass.

2.  The first touch should be made towards the goal to create a better angle to cross.

3.  Look for first time finishes on goal with the head or the volley.

Progressions:

1.  Player 3 runs under Player 2 and finishes a layoff pass. 

Players Required: 
12-16
