Attack/Defend 1-on-1 shots
This drill practices short shots with a defender. Players rotate once a shooter has scored two goals.
Set up with two posts facing each other, with an assist player under each. Two shooters stand between the posts, facing each other. Any remaining players form a queue at each post.
- One of the shooters makes a move, receives the ball from the assist player facing them, and takes a shot. The other shooter tries to defend the shot.
- The assist player collects the rebound and returns to the post.
- Meanwhile, the second shooter makes a move, receives the ball and takes a shot. The first shooter tries to defend the shot.
- Again, the assist player collects the rebound.
- This continues until either player has scored two goals. Once that has happened, the shooters join the back of their queues, the assist players become the new shooters, and the first person in each queue becomes the new assist players.
