Technical Activation To Goal

Improve ability to execute killer passes towards goal, with the correct runs from attackers.

Set up two goals on either side of the 6-yard box with at least 10 players, including 2 goalkeepers. Divide players into 2 teams. Variation 1 (left side): A plays a long pass to B. B passes to C, who comes off their mannequin. C finds D, triggering E’s diagonal run. D plays in E, who finishes. Players follow their pass. D sprints around the pole; E retrieves the ball and returns it to the pile. Variation 2 (right side): A plays a long pass to B. B passes to E, who comes off their mannequin. E finds C, who plays to D. This triggers E’s diagonal run. D plays in E, who finishes. Players rotate stations. C sprints around the pole; E retrieves the ball and returns it to the pile.
