The player who can consistently put the ball in the back of the opponent’s net, the individual who can determine the outcome of a game with one strike of the ball, is a rare and valuable commodity. To score goals on a consistent basis requires special talents. The ability to shoot powerfully and accurately with either foot is essential. Physical assets such as speed, quickness, and strength are definite benefits, as are intangibles such as anticipation and composure under pressure. A bit of luck doesn’t hurt either, although scoring goals for the most part isn’t the result of blind luck. As an old coaching adage so aptly states,“good luck generally occurs where preparation meets opportunity.” The key word here is preparation. This comprehensive program provides a series of game-simulated exercises that will sharpen your shooting skills and improving your ability to finish a successful attack. This DVD is an essential training resource for coaches and players at any competitive level!
