The defending team will attempt to block the shots. If the ball goes out then the goal keeper serves a new ball.

The Shooting Game

This one is known by my team simply as “The Shooting Game.” Split your players up into two team. Have each team line up at an opposite corner of the goal with plenty of balls.

On your command the players go one by one to shoot on goal. They must shoot by the time they reach a center dividing line of cones. Shots taken past the cones don’t count. The next player in line cannot go until the player in front of him has shot. Play to 10 goals.
