Training plan: 2019s, Shooting and Scoring

• 20 m square with pop-up goals round the outside, facing in. The coach stands in the middle with all the balls: the volcano.
• The coach rolls balls out along the ground in any direction, keeping 3 or 4 loose at a time.
• Children chase a ball, control it and score in any goal, then bring the ball back to the coach.
• Team challenge: can everyone score before the pile of balls runs out?

• Progress 1: Add two lava monsters in bibs who win balls and give them to the coach. Swap them every minute.
• Progress 2: Goals only count first time, or with two touches at most.

For the 2019s: 1 monster.

Usually for 8 to 12 children, so adjust it to fit.

• 20 m square, a pop-up goal on each side, a shooting line 4 to 6 m out, and a pile of discs by each goal: the fruit.
• Pairs share a hoop outside the square: the bowl. Everyone dribbles a ball and shoots at any goal from outside its line.
• Score, then take one disc from that goal's pile to your bowl. Yellow discs (bananas) only count if you scored with your other foot.
• Play 2-minute rounds. Aim for one disc of every colour in your hoop.

• Progress 1: Orange discs (oranges) only count from a first-time shot.
• Progress 2: Add two defenders in bibs who try to win a ball. Swap them every minute.

For the 2019s: 6 m, bananas other foot only.

Usually for 8 to 12 children, so adjust it to fit.
