  • Setup

    Players form equal numbers at each cone.

  • Step 1

    (A) kicks-in from fullback to (B) who leads straight towards them

  • Step 2

    (B) marks and handballs to (C) who times their run to be in a good front & square position so they are running past at pace.
    (C) can't assume (B) will mark, so must tread water until this occurs or they will be out of position.

  • Step 3

    (C) takes, runs and kicks long to leading (D)

  • Step 4

    (D) marks and handballs to (E)

  • Step 5

    (E) takes, runs, steadies and kicks the goal

  • Step 6

    The exercise is mirrored up the other side of the oval, with (F) kicking in as soon as the shot is taken
    Have an assistant/injured player gather balls from behind the goal.
