Perils of the Soccer Wall
Soccer Shooting Drills
Goals are the salt and pepper of soccer and they can only be scored by either shooting, or heading the ball. Heading the ball is an unnatural process, whereas kicking the ball is quite a natural “need” that humans have, deep down. How many times have you walked on the street and instinctively kicked a leaf, or some small rock, just for the heck of it?
Now, how many times have you walked on the street and started hitting your head against solid objects? I hope not a lot. So heading is a lot harder to train, because we have to fight against our own natural fear of hitting our head against an object. That’s why soccer shooting drills are so much more diverse and common in training sessions. Let’s take a look at the different types of shooting drills.
-Soccer Shooting Drills – Static Positions
Static position soccer shooting drills refer to the player’s position, not the ball (although in the case of free kicks, both the ball and the player are static). Free kicks are very helpful for your players in training their shot accuracy and usually they are used for just that, instead of being a means to get your shot power trained. You could try having all your players execute free kicks, or just select a handful that you noticed are better at this role and form them as specialists in free kicks.
The other way you can practice soccer shooting drills in a static position is by having one player in the center, receiving passes from the sides and shooting, without moving towards the ball. This simulates a match scenario that occurs quite often, with a striker or a central midfielder having to shoot the ball with a single touch from a static position, because he has no space to move around, or no time to do so.
-Soccer Shooting Drills – Dynamic Positions
There’s a wider array of Soccer Drills for shooting that can be practiced from dynamic positions, than from static ones. One of the most popular is the run-and-shoot: have your players positioned in a line at the center of the pitch and send a keeper in the goal. Now, have each player sprint with the ball at his feet up to a certain point that you decide (place a cone as a visual marker), then cannon a shot to goal from there.
If you want to practice long range shots, you’ll obviously have them shooting for far away, whereas if you want more finishing accuracy, you will have your players shoot from the edge of the box, or even inside it.
A slight variation of the run and shoot soccer drill is the wall-and-shoot. Basically, you’ll have the same setup, with the players at half court and a goalkeeper guarding the net of one of the goals, but you will also have a player somewhere near the penalty area, who will act as a wall passer for your incoming players. So a player will sprint with the ball, when he is close to the wall passer he initiates a one-two and shoots the ball in full-on sprint, as soon as he receives it back.
After a while, the above mentioned soccer drills for shooting tend to get repetitive, so you might want to dig up some more, or simply create variations of these. You can work around the dynamic position ones and create new drills of your own.

I have some soccer or (football) questions I would like to know before starting my job coaching a team?
I just got a job of coaching soccer or (football) and have some questions to ask so I am clear on the rules before I start. Whats the differen betwwen a winger and a right of left midfielder or are they considered the same positions?
During a free kick at goal what is the distance that the wall has to stay from the kicker? Any other info would also help. Thanks.
RIght where do I start.
WIngers or far right midfielders or left ones tend to make serching runs down the wings or bilines of the pitch in the hope to cross the ball deep to a forward in the box of the goal area,, or drill the ball hard and low or pull the ball back hopefully pulling defenders out and into the box therefore leaving attacking players free to recieve the crossed ball in the attempt to score
ALWAYS CALL IT FOOTBALL
real fans never call it that S word
it’s 10 yards for a free kick
contact me on my yahoo for any questions that you have
I played all my life and nearly made it pro when i was young
as a midfielf player
left of right midfield can over lap with the left and right backs creating deep runs into the oppostion corners, they also support each other, if the right back makes the run, the right midfield player can drop inside, or deeper into the middle of the pitch to recieve the ball
erm if you can watch any premiership action via YOUTUB, (ENGLISH LEAGUE) you will see a lot of searching balls being passed with the right weight
if your learning to be a coach, I would personall concertrate on passing, with the right weight ie that the pace of the ball isnt too fast tto control or too slow that the player being passed to has to come and collect it
dribbling techniques, nothing flashy but the basics of round cones
controlling a ball with the body
passing the ball short long and other passes, with the inside of the foot (best control) outside casing curl, or with the top of the foot which is power,
As well, balance is key so young players need to understand the center of gravity when passing a ball if they lean back the ball goes up if you lean forward the ball goes nowhere
there is no such thing as A PLAY
teach players to form triagles onthe pitch and pass between them, this is noticable if you watch any PREMIERSHIP football on YOUTUBE
and anything else contact me
Does it seem like soccer aficionados speak a language all their own? It sure seems like it to me, and I’ve been playing the game for over 20 years. I put an article on the front page of this blog to help explain the most common soccer terms in plain English. Hopefully this list will help soccer moms everywhere (and soccer dads too, for that matter)to better understand what their little athlete is talking about! Click Here For Access: Soccer Terms.
