Developing and Improving the Shooting Movement

This training unit focuses on acquiring and improving correct shooting movements. This means shooting while standing and shooting while running, without a jump, however, in order to highlight arm and body movements. Following a warm-up exercise that already involves shots, the players practice the shoulder and arm rotation for shooting and subsequently combine these moves in a passing competition. In a short game, the players implement the shooting movements in a game situation. This is followed by the goalkeeper warm-up shooting and a closing series of shots that focus on shooting at the goal.

The training unit consists of the following key exercises:

- Warm-up/Stretching (individual exercise: 15 minutes/total time: 15 minutes),
