Outswinging Corner

12 min · Intermediate · 8+ players · Medium space

Description

Setup
A goal with a keeper, a corner flag or cone at the corner, and balls at the corner. Four attackers, three defenders.
Play
The corner is struck to bend away from the goal. Attackers start centrally and attack the ball on the move: near post, penalty spot, back post, and one at the edge of the box for anything cleared.
Score
A goal counts 1. A header on target counts 1 whether it goes in or not, because the point is attacking the ball.
Rotate
Six corners, then attackers and defenders swap.
Harder
Add a second defender on the line and a live keeper who can come.
Easier
No defenders, just the delivery and the runs.
