Combination Play to Finish

Set three combination stations outside the penalty area with a full-size goal and goalkeeper. Players combine centrally before releasing the final runner.

Use one touch when possible; set the ball with the correct weight; time the run behind the line; play the through pass into stride; finish early when the goalkeeper is exposed.

• Add an active defender or require the final pass to be first-time.

• Use a cone defender and allow extra touches.
