Simple but effective shooting session plan
This is a simple yet effective session that I have used in the past 2 weeks, the week before, my team played a match and had endless attempts at goal and never scored, I practiced this session for 20 mins, can be longer or shorter depending on your session. Our next match we won 15 – 0, whilst I cant put that massive result down to the session alone, I did see more sharpness, better placement and more confidence.
I have attached several screenshots to show you the layout and flow of the session.

Improving Turning Skills
Warm Up Session
Use a square pitch and get the players jogging around the area and shout key phrase to get them to change direction making sure they don’t bump into other players
Introduce a ball per player and ask the players to demonstrate their favourite skills, I normally ask one player to show a turn and then all players practice the turn, then ask a different player to demonstrate second turn, practice both turns before introducing third turn. I normally call the turns 1, 2, 3 turn. Once the players pick the session up and are producing the 3 turns well, use 3 cones to represent the different turns, ask the players when the cone is shown to do the same turn. This will encourage the player to produce the turn with their head up
Tactical Session
4 players in outside squares and 6 players in the middle, Players pass the ball into a free player for the player to produce a turn through the gate before passing into another free outside gate. Ask the players to use the different turns learnt in the warm up, introduce different amount of touches to maximise the turn, 0 to 2 touches. Encourage the players to run away at pace after producing the turn
Skill
Remove 3 bibs from the players leaving 3 bibbed and 3 non bibbed, goals are scored when making a turn through a gate, players without the ball need to win ball back
Key skills used with this session is maximising body position, creating space, keeping head up, communication with the team,
Match
Remove the outer squares and leave one big square, move the turning goals to each corner, one per each corner. The aim to score through the gates with a turn, you can either nominate two goals per team or leave each goal open to each team, either way will encourage the players to keep head up and look to switch play, an excellent skill to learn for mini soccer.
