Shooting from Endline Guard Pass - 3-D

 

DRILL OBJECTIVE(S) DEVELOP ENDLINE ATTACK AND GUARD SHOOTING SKILLS
PLAYERS 10+ PLAYERS, GK OPTIONAL
SPACE CIRCLE ZONE TO GOAL
EQUIPMENT 20+ BALLS, 4 CONES, 2 REBOUND BOARDS OR STICKS OR LINES OF CONES

EXPLANATION:

  • Player with the ball on the outside starts by attacking the endline at speed and carrying the ball towards the goal.
  • As X approaches the Rebound Board/Stick/Line of Cones, he gets his body around to the endline, and lifts the ball on the move, over the Rebound Board and cutting towards the goal.
  • As he controls the ball after the lift, X passes the ball back to leading player in Guard position at the top of the circle.
  • The “Guard” player initially moves inside, then cuts back outside to receive the ball at the top Right or Left edge of the circle. He receives and shoots on goal.
  • Start the same play on the opposite side, and repeat. 

COACHING POINTS:

  • X should carry and lift the ball at speed towards the goal. As he crosses over the rebound board/line of cones, he should look up at the goal, and then drop the pass under his shoulder back to the shooter.
  • The player in Guard position must time his run so he does not get into shooting position too early. He should be arriving there at the same time as the ball, and receive and shoot as quickly as possible - even a first time shot if the pass is slow and controlled enough. 

EVALUATION:

  • Players should get used to playing the ball in the air and on the move. The ball should be controlled below knee height and kept bouncing, to go over flat sticks into the circle.
  • If ball carriers change the angle of attack as they approach the endline, they should be able to lift the ball at speed without stopping it.
