Organization

Use a full goal with goalkeeper. Position attackers around the box with designated near-post, central and far-post runs plus one player for the edge of the box. Deliver repeated corners from both sides.

Coaching Points

Start runs at different heights; attack the ball with conviction; avoid occupying the same zone; screen legally; keep one player ready for clearances and second balls.

Progressions

  • Add active defenders or vary between inswinging and outswinging service.

Regressions

  • Use passive defenders and rehearse one run pattern at a time.
