Run & Gun
 Shooting / Finishing Game
Run Gun
 
 Playing ..
  • Split players into 2 even teams ... give each team a name.
    (see Youth Coach Handbook #3)
  • Set up 2 small, coned goals and 1 cone 10-12 yards away from the goal.
  • Line up teams next to a goal, each player with a ball.
  • When the coach blows the whistle, the first player from each line dribbles to and around the cone and then dribbles back toward his/her goal and shoots the ball into the goal.
  • The first player to shoot the ball into the net gets a point for his/her team.
  • Play until one of the players scores a goal so if both players miss the net, they chase down their ball and try to kick the ball into their net first. (Players should not give up until a goal is scored.)
 Coaching Points
  • Players should dribble at speed ... keeping close control of the ball.
  • Players should take long shots to kick the ball into their net first.
  • Coaches must keep the lines moving so after a player has scored, blow the whistle to start the next 2 players.
  • If there are a lot of players, split them into 3 groups.
  • Encourage cheering for teammates.
 Competition, Variations& Restrictions:
  • Play games to 7, losing team does 5 jumping jacks.
