60 Second Drills

60-Second Drill - Attacker's Choice

Staffordshire FA brings you the final instalment of coaching videos produced by Discount Football Kits.

Today, we bring you the final instalment of 60-Second Drills; a series of coaching videos provided by our partners Discount Football Kits. 

This series focuses on 1-v-1 drills that incorporate a range of skill-based attacking and defending scenarios for players to improve their awareness, confidence and ability.

Attacker’s Choice


In this particular drill, both players begin on either side of the halfway line. It is up to the designated attacker to choose which way to shoot. Once that decision has been made, they must run in the opposite direction to that goal and make their way around the allocated cone before entering the field of play. The defender must also round their cone before entering play but must do so in the opposing direction to the attacker. This drill tests ball control, ball skills and shooting accuracy.
