Turning With The Ball

Description

Description:

Using the board or the coach, the player will play a 1-2 before performing a specific turn to set themselves for the shot

Progressions:

Change the cues to decide which turn to do (e.g. coach calls "1" meaning a back foot touch, or "2" for a outside turn). You may also use different coloured cones as a visual cue instead of verbal.

Example turns : 

  • Back Foot Touch
  • Front Foot Turn
  • Outside Turn
  • Behind The Leg

Key Coaching Points

Space:

  • Do they have space to receive the pass?
  • Do they have space to complete the turn?

Angle:

  • Are they giving themselves a good passing angle?
  • Are they giving themselves a good shooting angle?

Creativity:

  • Can they vary up the turns, creating some unpredictability?
