Shooting with Coordination Exercises I

• 1 Coordination ladder
• 6 flat hurdles
• 10 rings
• 5 flat cones

• Players line up behind Player A, Player B acts as a passer.
• Player A skips through the coordination ladder with 2 ground contacts in each section. Then, they laterally skip over the hurdles with 2 ground contacts each.

Variant 1 (Red)

• Quick sprint to the cone, flat pass from Player B to A. A controls the ball, dribbles to the penalty area, and shoots.

Variant 2 (Yellow)

• One-two pass between Player A and B. Long sprint to the cone, skipping through the coordination rings: double rings with one foot each, single ring with both feet, short sprint to the cone. Player B plays a high lofted ball to Player A (back to goal) who controls the ball and shoots.

Coaching Points

• Coordination exercises: Focus on correct arm and leg movement during skipping (pulling knees up and swinging arms at right angles)
• Ball control and receiving: In both variants, there's always an opponent at the player's back. Ensure the ball is always received and controlled with the inside of the foot, keeping the opponent behind.
• Player B: Ensure correct execution of flat or high lofted passes (position of shooting and standing foot!)
