Coaching Soccer Drills: Shooting Tricks You Must Know
You may know this already that in coaching soccer drills, every other skill leads to one final aim, a shot at the goal. It requires both skill and character to produce quality shooting. But apart from this, there is something else that is equally important and that is forceful attitude.
It is the responsibility of every player but more importantly that of the forward players to shoot the ball. When teaching soccer, give a lot of emphasis on shooting.
There are so many things that may result from a shoot. Shots can be directed towards a goal. The goalkeeper might drop the ball exactly at the feet of your forward player. Unruly shots can turn into brilliant passes. Ground shots may bounce back. You might even score a goal directly from the shot.
During the soccer practice, attacking players are always on a lookout to shoot the ball into the goal at every possible opportunity. They are made to think in a way that they always have goal scoring on their mind. These attacking players are known as sniffers in England. This is because they are always sniffing out scoring chances.
They consider every chance the last chance to score a goal and hence shoot accordingly. They are always present at the right time at the right place. They’ll even make the most of being in the wrong place at the right time. Therefore, in coaching soccer drills you must ask the players to hit the ball at every opportunity.
As a rule, a shot is whenever the ball it hit in the direction of the goal with the intent to score. Yet, one technique that is most effective is driving the ball through the middle by use of the laces of the foot. To carry this out, the player should have his head over the ball, his toe should be extended, and his upper body should keep steady.
In the course of coaching drills, teach your players to shoot the ball wide and low to the goalie. Herein, low ground shots take priority over high shots. This is because goalies find it difficult to stop the ground shots as they have to stretch their hands relatively more.
Young players tend to score more when they practice inside regulation sized goals by kicking the ball above the head of the goalkeeper. You must discourage your players to do this as it instills the habit of shooting high goals. In coaching soccer drills, stop this practice by not letting your players to practice in adult sized goals.
So get going and train your team members to see and confirm the goalkeeper’s position before they shoot the ball into the goalpost.
