Shooting Accuracy – Find the Corners

Shooting Accuracy is so important in any level of football.

There are loads of shooting / finishing drills, this one in particular works on accuracy and finding the corners.

Its split into 2 sections

The first section is shooting into and empty goal, the catch is you have to score in the gap between the post and cone / pole.

The second section is shooting against the keeper to claim a point.

Shooting Accuracy – Find the Corners – How it Works

The idea of the game is to get into section 2 and shoot against the keeper, every time you score against the keeper you get 1 point. If you score you keep going until you miss.

Highest score at the end wins.

Players all start in section 1.

They will receive a firm pass from a Coach or Player.

The are allowed 1 touch to control and 1 touch to shoot and they must shoot between the Goalpost and the Cones to progress to the second section.

Players are not allowed to get really close to the goal and they are not allowed to shoot with a slow pea roller

If they don’t “Find the Corners” they go to the back of the queue.

If they progress to the second section then the same control rules apply. 1 touch control, 1 touch to shoot.

The Keeper IS allowed to come out and claim any heavy touches.

As soon as they miss against the keeper the move to the back of the queue in Section 1 again and repeat.

Shooting Accuracy – Find the Corners – Coaching Points

EYES ON THE BALL.

Make sure control is good, not too soft as they will have no run up, not too hard so they go chasing.

Shooting, picking their spot and keeping the eye on the ball.

Coaches can mix it up by calling the corner they want them to shoot at as they pass to them.
