Finishing Drill: Second-Post Runs and Cutback Timing

1 min read

Setup

Two servers wide, one pivot, one runner attacking second post.

Pattern

  • Wide player drives and cuts back.
  • Pivot checks near post to drag marker.
  • Runner arrives second post for first-time finish.

Progression

Introduce passive defender, then active recovery defender to increase realism.

Key detail

Runner should time movement after the server’s final touch, not too early.
