Focus: Coordinating Showing Runs

1. Setup

• Players form two groups of equal size.
• Group 1 stands on the sideline. Each player has a ball.
• Group 2 stands at the inside right (or inside left) position, about 30 yards in front of a goal with goalkeeper.

Throw-in to Set Up a Shot

• The first player in Group 1 throws the ball into the path of the first player in Group 2.
• This player receives the ball on the run and shoots.
• Afterwards, each player moves to the end of the other line.

Variation

• After the throw-in, the thrower shows for a pass to the wing, receives the ball and crosses into the penalty area for the other player to shoot.
