Finishing exercises for U14 players

The drill consists of 2 consecutive actions: pass – drive – shot, immediately followed by wall pass + shot. Performed for time with pair rotation.

After each finishing action the two players in each pair swap positions.

Focus on the shooting technique and wall pass.

Variation: reduce the space to increase defensive intensity or add a touch limit to force faster play. You can also add a joker to create numerical superiority and facilitate learning.

The drill consists of a pass followed by a wide shot. Performed for time with rotation within each team and between the two teams at the end of each set (RED-BLUE), changing the profile and execution foot.

Players alternate sides to practise with both feet and profiles.

Focus on the shooting technique and the oriented control.

Variation: reduce the space to increase defensive intensity or add a touch limit to force faster play. You can also add a joker to create numerical superiority and facilitate learning.

The drill is a finishing circuit split into 4 stations. There are 4 teams (1 per station) and each team performs a sequence (black, red, blue, white).

Players rotate numerically within each team. At the end of each set, teams rotate stations, so every team passes through all 4 stations.

Focus on the shooting technique.

Variation: reduce the space to increase defensive intensity or add a touch limit to force faster play. You can also add a joker to create numerical superiority and facilitate learning.

The drill is a chained finishing circuit with numerical rotation as shown in the diagram. There are 2 consecutive actions per team (black and orange). Both finishing sequences are performed consecutively in the order BLACK-ORANGE.

Performed for time; rotation is first within each team then between the two teams (RED-BLUE), so the task is performed from both profiles.

Focus on the crossing and heading technique, the timing of the attacking run, the shooting technique and zone occupation.

The drill is a chained finishing circuit with numerical rotation. There are 2 consecutive actions per team (black and orange). Both sequences are performed consecutively and are different for each profile (right-left).

Performed for time; rotation is first within each team then between the two teams (RED-BLUE), so the task is performed from both profiles.

Focus on the crossing and heading technique, the timing of the attacking run, the shooting technique and on the finishing zone occupation.
