Flicks and Kicks<br />
Purpose<br />
To develop free-kick options around goal<br />
Organization<br />
Set out a 20-by-20-yard area with a goal (5 yards wide) and a goalkeeper on one endline. Station 4 players in a line<br />
15 yards from goal, each with a ball. Station an attacking player on the far endline from the goal. Repeat in one<br />
other area for a total <strong>of</strong> 12 players.<br />
Game Objective<br />
Players stationed 15 yards from the goal line with a ball take it in turns to flick the ball up for the attacking player<br />
to half volley or volley on goal. Repeat and then rotate positions.<br />
Progressions<br />
1. Use the weaker foot when shooting.<br />
2. The player who flicks the ball turns and makes an arcing run into the space in front <strong>of</strong> goal. The attacking<br />
player fakes a shot and lobs the ball into the space in front <strong>of</strong> goal for his teammate to volley or head on goal.<br />
Key Coaching Points<br />
1. Keep the head and the knee over the ball at impact.<br />
2. Don’t lean back.<br />
3. Keep your eye on the ball at all times.<br />
4. Strike the ball with your laces.<br />
5. Follow through at the target.<br />
