Quick Fire

Set up

Field

A small cone goal for each group, with the two pairs about 20 yards out on either side.

Players

5 or more players. Groups of five: one in goal, the other four in two pairs.

Keeper

Yes.

Balls

Three or four spare balls beside each goal, so a miss never stops the drill.

How it runs

1. 1.The goalkeeper starts by passing to one player in Pair A.
2. 2.That player lays the ball off for the partner to run onto and shoot.
3. 3.If the shot scores, Pair B retrieves the ball and immediately runs the same pattern from the opposite side.
4. 4.If the shot misses, retrieve it and return it to the spare-ball supply before the goalkeeper starts the next repetition.
5. 5.If the goalkeeper makes the save, turn and distribute to the pair on the opposite side.
