Under 11 Soccer Progression 3: Finishing: Finishing: Short Steps
Coach: Rich Badmington
In this series of free instructional videos for coaching youth soccer, LTRC Director of Coaching Rich Badmington demonstrates some fundamentals and activities designed for the U 11 player to improve on their shooting. Here are three simple tools to help young players improve finishing...goal scoring. 1. Take short, quick steps, aim your non-kicking foot. 2. Outside of the foot for young feet. 3. Aim low and to the far post. The building blocks of soccer can be grouped into a series of three basic “progressions,” meaning three, progressively more challenging teaching sequences of related ideas. A fourth progression is offered for Goalkeepers. These are sequences within which ideas are built, from simple to complex; a growing accumulation of information. One idea relates to and serves as a foundation for the next. The teaching of pure technique (the way the body plays the ball) must happen within these activities – not as a preliminary, isolated, static exercise.
