Set-up

Two corner routines installed: Routine A — outswinging corner to far post, target is Rowan Bergman attacking the back stick. Routine B — short corner to Landon Beck overlapping for a cross. Drill both ten times each side.

Coaching points

  • Runners time their runs to arrive as the ball does — not before
  • Near-post decoy runner must block the GK's sight line before peeling away
  • Bergman: attack the ball, don't wait for it — your physicality is the advantage

Progressions

  • Add three passive defenders to simulate crowd in the box
  • Switch to live defenders at full intensity for the final four reps
