Training - Monday, June 4

Holy Angels, 14 players.

My plan for the day was a technical session, attempting to address a few areas in which we need some serious improvement prior to Regionals; clearances from the back and judging air balls.  I also wanted to continue to work on our ball striking technique. 

From what I've experienced (and read), young girls develop the skill of tracking an object in a 3D environment slower than boys do.  I assume this is related somewhat to depth perception, but I haven't done extensive research to find out exactly what all the exact cause of this is.  All I know is that many girls on this team jump to head a ball that is 10 feet above their heads, or take an approach path to an air ball that sometimes leaves them and the ball in separate zip codes once the ball is once again Earth-bound. 

This ability to pick up on and judge a trajectory of the ball flight is a key component in the game.  With all the work we've done with heading the past few years, it doesn't do any good if the girl due to poor visual coordination can't get on the end of a cross, a goal kick, a punt, etc.  It's about moving the body into the correct line of flight  and getting the body into an area that the ball will land. 

So, on my way over to Holy Angels I stopped by Toys R Us to pick up an Air Hogs Stomp Rocket set. 

I had seen these things in action in my neighborhood and it looked like a very enjoyable way for the girls to work on this visual skill.  I didn't really know how it was going to work out with this age group, thinking that the Stomp Rocket toy would be better for younger players.  I was amazed at the results by the end of training.

I set up 3 stations and divided the group into 2 groups of 5 and one group of 4.  The groups would work at each station for 8 to 10 minutes or so, then rotate through the other ones.  Each station had points associated with it and each group would tally their points to keep things competitive. 

Station #1 - Stomp Rocket

The girls took turns jumping on the air pad to launch the foam-tipped rockets into sky-high parabolas for their partners to try to get their body in position (by judging the trajectory of the air rocket) to catch the falling projectile.

Station #2 - Aerial Ball Control/Dead Ball Service

Set Up

• 1 8v8 goal with a 6x12 yard box marked with disks in front of it
• A clearing line marked with disks 12 yards from goal
• 1 ball striking disk 30 yards from goal

Procedure

• One partner in goal, one partner up at the ball striking disk
• Girls took turns striking a dead (not moving) ball at goal from 30 yards
• The player in the goal tries to either 1) control the air ball within the controlling box, or 2) clear high balls with their head past the clearing line 12 yards away and to the outside of the field

Make It Competitive

• + 5 points for the ball striker if they can score a goal past their teammate
• + 1 point for the player in goal if they are able to control the flighted ball within the controlling box
• +1 point for the player in goal if she is able to clear a high ball with her head past the clearing line

Coaching Points

• Player in goal must move her body to get in the line of flight rather than stretch and reach (off balance) for a ball wide of them
• Concentrate on the clearing headers, looking to put the ball high and wide up field

Station #3 - Aerial Ball Contact/Moving Ball Service

Same as above, this time the ball striker pushes the ball forward with one touch and strikes a moving ball at goal.  Ball must be hit from outside the 25 yard mark.

I had the girls go through the entire circuit (each station) once, then brought them together to talk about the tracking/trajectory piece.

I then had the groups go through the 3 stations again, varying Stations #2 and #3 to work on clearances.

Station #2b - First Time Clearances/Dead Ball Weak Foot Low Service

Station #3b - First Time Clearances/Moving Ball Low Service

This time the girls would accumulate points by clearing the ball up field.  Points were determined by accuracy and distance as shown by the numbers in red in the above illustration.

7v7 2 Goal, 1 Goal

We finished with a 7v7 half field game with one team going to a regulation sized goal and the other attacking the two 8v8 goals we used during the station work.  The GK of the team defending the two 8v8 goals had to defend both goals.

If readers remember, last Wednesday the skies opened up on us at Macalester College.  I failed to wash the scrimmage vests since then.  Suffice it to say that the odor emanating from the vests was less than pleasant.  Neither team wanted to wear them so I was forced to do trivia to determine a losing team that would wear the rotten-egg-smelling Nike vests. 

This whole situation garnered a bunch of smiles and laughs which I love to see.  It also helped to have an affect on the ensuing scrimmage as I told the girls in the orange vests that if they scored, the smelly apparel could be shed and had to be worn by the other team until that team scored.  It was a VERY competitive finish to training :)

Training - Wednesday, May 30

With storm clouds gathering, we took the field at Mac for our sole training session this week.  We've had a lot of soccer in the last month and the next two weeks things die down a bit game-wise.  We meet Wayzata again tomorrow in league play, then get in 5 training sessions before meeting up with the Woodbury team on June 12.  After that we have another 3 or 4 sessions, a rematch against Coon Rapids, a game against our White team, then off to Des Moines for Regionals.

My idea tonight was to get in a lot of technical finishing.  We have two regulation-sized goals at Mac that are relatively easy to move around the field.  This allowed me to set up a series of repetitive shooting exercises then change the field around to finish with some fun, competitive games to two goals.

I started with some ball striking work, building on our inside of the foot bending balls from last session while also introducing the outside of the foot bending ball. 

Before sending the girls off to work, I sat them all down behind me and proceeded to strike four different balls at the same target.  I first hit a high lofted ball, then a low driven ball, then an inside of the foot bending ball, and finally an outside of the foot bending ball.  All four soccer balls started in the same spot, and I began my approach to each ball from the same spot.  The key here is for the players to be able to hit all four types of passes coming from one starting position, changing the flight of the ball by foot placement/alignment, where they make contact with the ball, and how their leg swings at the ball.

Using these ideas, I could hit about a half a dozen different passes - low/high inside bender, low/high outside bender, low driven, and high lofted.

I. Ball Masters Program - Individual Skills Development

Ball Striking Technique

• High Lofted Pass
• Instep Drive
• Inside of the Foot Bender
• Outside of the Foot Bender

The girls worked in pairs trying to strike passes that their teammate called for.  For example, if Getch and Becs were working together and Getch had the ball, Becs would yell out "High lofted pass!" and Getch would try to hit that type of pass to Becs.

* * * * *

The coaching point I really wanted to try and hammer into the girls today was how to finish low crosses played across the box when the attacker is in the middle of the goal or at the far post.  Most girls think that to score a goal, you have to swing your leg straight up the field at the goal.  This thought makes finishing crosses difficult as, especially when the ball is played across at pace, the timing of the leg swing has to be perfect in order to impart any type of power into the ball.  Instead, I want the girls to turn their hips to face the ball more, allowing the inside of the foot to also be turned more towards the ball.  This "new" foot angle allows an increased chance of better contact on the ball while also putting the ball "back where it came from" - back toward the post that the cross was coming from.  Not only will this though increase the girls chances of making good contact with the ball, but moreover the opposing GKs who are playing say a cross from their left will be moving to their right across the goal as the ball is played across.  Their momentum will help them get to any shots played to their right side while making it nearly impossible to stop even a weak shot hit back where it came from to the GKs left.

I thought long and hard about how to try and get this point across to the girls.  Eventually, I settled on using a prop.  I had Maddie bring a tennis racket and some tennis balls to training.  I got the girls together then asked for a volunteer who thought they had mad tennis skills to step up.  Hannah gladly took up the challenge.  I stood Hannah at the far post about 6 yards away from goal while I stood at the near post.  I asked Hannah to make sure her hips and the tennis racket head were both facing straight ahead of her towards the far post area of the goal, then asked her to try and hit the tennis balls I was going to throw in front of her into the far post area of the goal.

Now I'm no Johan Santana, but I proceeded to blow three tennis balls in a row past Hannah's face while she flailed hopelessly trying to make contact.  I then did the same thing to Bidi who had been heckling Hannah for her apparent tennis ineptitude. 

I then asked Bidi to turn her hips slightly, turn the racket head towards me roughly 45 degrees, and now try to hit the same type of thrown tennis ball into the near post area of the goal.  What do you think she did on the first pitch?  You guessed it... near post side netting with an attitude!  I asked the girls what did this all mean and how did this relate to our team and the soccer field.  It wasn't hard for all of them to see what I was getting at and they were all excited to put the new found knowledge to work.

* * * * *

Shooting is all about repetition, repetition of correct technique. 

My idea today was to split the group of 18 girls (I had the U14 Blue team's GK with us as well) into two teams of 8.  I set up two shooting fields side by side, and the 2 GKs took turns alternating in the net on field #2.  Half the group would work on a specific type of finishing skill on one field while the other half of the group would work on something else on the other field.  After 5 minutes the teams would switch fields.  After another 5 minutes, that particular "round" was complete and we'd move to round #2 with different finishing scenarios. 

II. Repetition Shooting Round #1

Field 1 - Back Where It Came From

Field 2 - Give and Goes

III. Repetition Shooting Round #2

Field 1 - Back Where It Came From - Bounding Balls

Field 2 - Far Post Benders and Near Post Driven Shots

Lightning in the skies at around 6:45PM.  We called practice and huddled in our cars for 15 - 20 minutes, then took the field again.  A few minutes later, more lighting and training was called.  We didn't get to the last two activities.

IV. Repetition Shooting Round #3

Field 1 - First Time Lay Backs

Field 2 - Heading

V. 4v4 Lots O' Shots

Training - Wednesday, May 23

Back at Mac for our second session at the cool new facility. I had 15 girls at tonight's practice.

I. Ball Masters Program – Individual Technical Development

Ball per player in a general area working on individual dribbling moves.

I gave the girls a series of difficult dribbling combinations to work on. These weren’t the garden variety single moves (ie, Scissors, Step Over) but rather some creative not-too-useful-in-games moves designed to spark interest in and challenge the girls.

With 15 girls at training, I divided the team into 3 groups of 5. Two groups would play in the 4v4 and 4v3+1 games while the third group would work on bending balls down the line in another part of the field. I rotated the teams every 4 minutes.

II. 4v4 to Targets

Set Up

• 40x30 yard area
• One Target player (who is neutral) on each endline, 4v4 in the grid
• Extra soccer balls behind each of the Targets

Procedure

• Blue and green play 4v4 in the playing area
• The object is to receive the ball from one Target and get it to the other Target
• Targets play 3-touch or less (ball can't die!) and pass back to the team who plays into them
• Teams can use Targets for support
• If the defending team wins the ball, they may play to either Target to begin their attack

Make It Competitive

• +1 point for a team if they can play the ball from one Target to the other

Coaching Points

• Team shape when the ball gets to a Target - two players back and wide one player offering a close option, the forth player deep and dangerous
• Move to 1) get open, 2) create space for yourself, 3) create space for a teammate
• Make the field big (spread out) in the attack, compact on defense

III. 4v3+1 to Goal

Set Up

• 40x30 yard field with a 3-yard goal on each endline
• 4 players from each team on the field, 1 player behind the team's goal running the endline as a support player

Procedure

• Attacking team (blue) has four players on the field and one support player
• Defending team (green) has 3 defenders on the field and two support players (one on each side of the goal)
• Attacking team goes to goal and can use their support player
• If green wins possession of the ball, they must play back to one of their support players
• This support player is then "live" and joins the 3 green defenders to make 4 attacking players
• One of the 4 blue attackers drops back to make 2 supporting players, leaving 3 blue players to defend

Make It Compeititve

• +1 point for each goal

Coaching Points

IV. Bending Balls

Set Up

• 44x15 yard channel set up with two goals and two start disks at each end (see below)
• 2 players at one end, three players at the other (since I had groups of 5)
• 3 to 4 soccer balls at each end

Procedure

• A passes to B who takes a prep touch and tries to bend the ball down the sideline (gold line) into the goal near the other group of players
• A and B switch positions as C and D take their turn, with D trying to bend the ball down their sideline (purple line)

Make It Competitive

• +1 point for each goal, which group can score more?

Coaching Points

• Head up after the prep touch as you are running to the ball to find your target
• Inside of the foot bending balls - toe of the kicking foot pointed up, player should look to "clip" the right side of the ball to impart right to left spin
• Look to make contact with the middle part of the ball to keep the pass low

Progression - High Bending Balls

Same set up and procedure, this time the players look to contact the bottom right part of the ball to lift the bent ball over a bench or other obstacle placed midway in the channel

V. 5v5 Winner Stays

Set Up

• 3 teams of 5
• 40x44 yard playing area with two regulation goals set up on the endlines

Procedure

• Blue plays green 5v5 to goal (4 field players + 1 GK)
• Gold waits on the sidelines
• First one to score stays on the field
• The team that was scored on leaves and the waiting team takes their place

Make It Competitive

• It is

Coaching Points

• Let them play

Training - Wednesday, May 16

Our first training session at my alma mater,  Macalester College (St Paul).  What a great new facility!  Where was this field back in the glory days?

The idea for today was to continue to address breaking down possible packed in defenses, if teams should choose to do so against us this weekend during the semifinals or (hopefully) the championship game.  Our main attack against this defense will come from the flanks, with early crosses into the danger area or by beating players 1v1 out wide and getting in endline crosses or wining corner kicks, and also by long range efforts.

Long range efforts don’t necessarily mean always striking shots from 25+ yards.  But if we can get a couple long distance strikes on goal early and prove that we are a threat from these opportunities, we will spread the defense out a bit as they will be forced to step up and pressure us.  This will create holes for crafty forwards to find space in dangerous areas for passes to feet.

In actuality, we probably need a few months in order to get all this stuff down, but the ideas for this type to play have to start sometime.  No better time than the present!

I had 17 girls at training.

I. Penalty Kicks

As the girls arrived on site I encouraged them to work on their PKs. While they waited for their turn, they were asked to be active, moving around to help get warmed up.

II. Endline Crosses

Set Up

• 4 crossers, 2 on the right and 2 on the left set up as shown below, with one crosser and one dummy defender on each side
• 3 defending players and a GK defending a goal
• 3 teams of 3 attackers 25 yards out from goal with all the soccer balls

Procedure

• A player from the blue attacking group plays a ball out to the right crosser
• Once the crosser has the ball under control, the dummy defender comes to pressure
• The crosser is looking to beat the defender and serve in a cross from near the endline
• Once the ball is in the net, out of bounds, or been cleared by the defenders, green plays a ball out to the left crosser to begin their attack on goal

Make It Competitive

• +1 point for a goal
• +3 points for a first time goal (a goal scored directly from a cross on a one-touch, without the attacker controlling the ball first)
• +6 points for any header goals

Coaching Points

• Crossers should attack the defender towards the middle of the field. If they just dribble down the sidelines, they set themselves up for a longer cross into the box. If they instead attack inside, the freeze the defender inside the field and, once they take a touch to beat the defender to the outside (away from goal), they will find themselves closer to the center of the field for an easier cross.
• Attack the defender at speed, take a bigger touch to get by them. This will allow the crosser to ran faster (without worrying about taking multiple touches on the ball) while also allowing the crossers to take a look up to see where they are crossing to.
• Crossers need to wrap their foot around the ball and pull the ball back – the closer you get to the endline, the more you have to cross the ball backwards, away from goal
• Runners need to get organized early and time their runs as not to be standing and waiting (easy to mark) before the cross comes in

III. Early Crosses

Set Up

• Same as above for the teams, the defenders, and the GK
• Still two crossers out wide on each side of the field, except now the two crossers start at the same disk, roughly 40 yards from goal
• All 3 attacking teams start about 30 yards from goal

Procedure

• Blue takes up starting positions as shown below
• A player from gold, next up after blue, plays a ball to blue1, who controls and passes a ball back to red1
• Red1 attacks the ball (doesn't wait for it) and looks to serve in an early cross for blue attackers + gold passer to finish (4v3 to goal)
• After the ball is in the net, out of bounds, or has been cleared by the defenders, gold takes up blue's starting positions and gold3 receives a pass from a green player to begin their sequence to goal

Make It Competitive

• +1 point for the attacking team if they get the first touch on the ball after the cross - I want the players to attack the ball aggressively
• +3 points for a goal

Coaching Points

• Drop the ball in the danger area off the crosses, aim for the penalty spot
• Attackers need to begin to read the crossers - if the ball is approaching them too quickly, it will likely take two touches to serve the ball.  If the ball is approaching at a slower pace and you see the wide player adjusting her feet and winding up to kick the ball, the cross is coming in
• Be first to the ball and don't give the defenders any free (unchallenged) clearances

9v9 Early Service

Set Up

• 60x75 yard field (half field) divided with a midline and channeled by extending the 44-yard box lines to midfield (see below)
• One goal on each endline
• 2 teams of 9 set up as shown below, with a GK, 3 defenders in the defending half, 2 wide players in the adjacent wide channels, and 3 attackers in the attacking half
• All the soccer balls divided and in/just behind the goals

Procedure

• Ball starts with blue's GK who plays to one of the 3 blue defenders
• One green attacker takes a knee and cannot defend
• After 5 consecutive passes by the 3 defenders and the GK, the ball can be played into either adjacent wide channel
• Crossers in these channels must deliver an early service into the danger area for their forwards
• The weak-side crosser (the crosser who does not receive a pass from the middle grid) may also join the attack
• If the the green defenders or GK gain possession of the ball, one blue attacker takes a knee and both blue crossers must return to their channel

Make It Competitive

• +1 point for each goal

Coaching Points

• 4v2 in the back, keep possession of the ball by making the grid big, moving to create good passing and support angles, knowing what you are going to do with the ball before you get it, and playing quickly
• Attackers must read the wide players - when are they going to serve the ball?
• Attackers should attack the ball aggressively and be active and buzzing around the box
• Crosses should be aimed toward the penalty spot
• No free clearances, challenge everything

Progression #1

Same as above, but now when the ball gets played wide to either crosser, all players are live to play until the ball is scored at either end

9v9 Free Play

Remove all restrictions and let the girls play.

Penalty Kicks

Again... just in case.  Two teams played through 3 PK rounds to see which team emerged victorious!

Training - Wednesday, May 9

6:45PM - 8:15PM Field Training

Pics from this session can be found here

With a sure-to-be tough game tomorrow evening against Eden Prairie to open up our Premier league schedule and our second State Cup game on Saturday against Dakota Rev, I didn't want to do too much with the girls tonight.  I did want to get back to some technical finishing work, but wanted to set up the training session so that I would be able to focus on the finishing in smaller groups rather than in a 17:1 ratio.

Here's what I did.  With 17 players, I divided the group into 4 teams of 4.  The 17th player was Mudd, our GK.  Two teams (8 players total) would work with me on finishing while the other two teams would play various small sided games.  The teams would rotate after a set amount of time so that the two teams shooting would go to play small sided soccer, and the two teams playing would come to shoot. 

To make things interesting and competitive for the girls, we kept track of points in everything (in the shooting and in the small sided games) to try and determine a winning team for the evening.

As you will see below, I didn't just send the two playing teams off to play 4v4.  I set up one field that offered 3 different small sided games (2v2 to Goal, 4v4 to Two Goals, and 4v4 to Goal) without a complete re-set up.  In this way, the training session flowed well and there was not much down time for field set up. 

Along with the variation in small sided games, I also changed up the shooting each round.  First round was first time shots from lay backs, second round was focused on far post ships, bending balls (the skill goals), and the third round was volleying technique.

We ended the evening with Power Finesse, one of the team's favorite shooting drills.  As you can see below, this game features one girl working (and the GK) with 15 girls standing around waiting for their turn.  I hate activities like this but the girls absolutely love this game, so every once in a while I breakdown and we play it. 

I. 4v4 Challenge - Round #1

Finishing Work - One Time Lay Backs

Set Up

• 2 teams of 4 players, each player with a soccer ball
• 1 goal with a GK
• Starting disks for each team 16 yards and 28 yards from goal (see below)

Procedure

• Each team designates a retriever (D) who stands behind the goal, a passer (C) who starts at the disk closest to the goal, and then two players (A and B) with all the soccer balls at the furthest disk
• Blue goes first, A passes to C who lays a ball back for A to shoot
• A goes to C, C goes to D, D retrieves the shot and takes their place in line behind B
• Green goes next and follows the same sequence

Make It Competitive

• +1 point for a goal if the GK gets a touch on the ball
• +3 points for a goal if it goes in "clean" (without the GK touching it)
• Double points for weak footed shots (trying to encourage weak foot development)

Coaching Points

• Verbal communication ("Set it!")
• Visual Communication (hand pointing to the side of the body you want the ball played to)
• Tough to keep the ball low when it is rolling back to you - concentrate on hitting the top half of the ball, upper body over the ball at impact
• Pick one half of the goal or the other to shoot at, commit to your shot and visualize the outcome

Field Play - 2v2 to Goal

Set Up

• 2 teams of 4
• One 40x30 yard field with a midfield line set up as shown below (you will use this same field for three different games)
• teams split into 2 teams of 2, each pair plays against 2 players from the opposite team in a half of the field
• 3 soccer balls per game, one in each of the two goals, one on the field

Procedure

• Teams play 2v2 to goal
• If you miss the goal with a shot, you must go retrieve the ball and your teammate plays 1v2

Make It Competitive

• +1 point for each goal

Coaching Points

• I let them play

For Round #1, I went for 5 minutes.  On the 2v2 fields, the girls played for 2 minutes, rested for 1 minute as they switched opponents, then played for another 2 minutes.  Doesn't seem like a lot of time but the players will get tired easily in this game.

On the finishing field, the teams worked for 2.5 minutes then switched sides and immediately picked up where they left off. 

After the five minutes, blue and green headed over to play 2v2, gold and gray came to work on finishing.

II. 4v4 Challenge - Round #2

For Round #2, blue played gold and green played gray.

Finishing Work - Bending Balls

During Round #1, all the girls tired to hammer the ball as hard as they could at goal. 

I used to do this as well back in the day, thinking that the only way to beat the GK was to kick the ball as hard as I could and that the best goals were the ones that rocketed into the back of the net.

I distinctly remember my first professional shooting practice with the Tampa Bay Rowdies in the summer of 1992.  We were going through a simple give and go sequence finishing with a shot on goal.  After my second or third shot, all of which had gone in by the way, I heard a "Hold up son!  Let us have a quick chat with you."  I turned to see Rodney Marsh, our General Manager, sitting in a golf cart and beckoning me over.  I knew his history as an English International and English First Division player, and all of us players were in awe of him.  Yes!  The head honcho has just seen me rocket the ball past Golden Boy (rookie sensation and my roommate, Billy Andracki) three times and I'm about to get seriously complimented by Mr. Marsh! 

"You think those are good goals, do ya?"  He said to me.  I was obviously taken by surprise by the comment, but composed myself enough to respond, "Umm... yeah."

"Let me tell you something son, any pro can strike a ball well.  The classiest goals, the ones that set you apart from the others, are the ones in which you use skill, not power."  Right or wrong, to this day those words ring clear as crystal in my head. 

Same set up and rotation as One Time Lay Backs, with the focus this time on bending balls into the corners or chipping the balls over the GK from wide angles.

Instead of laying a ball back, I asked the passers to lay a ball out to either side.

 

I went over the technique of bending balls with the inside and outside of the foot, as well as gave the girls the thought of trying to float a high ball into the opposite corner from a wide angle.

Field Play - 4v4 to Two Goals

Same field set up as 2v2 to Goal, but I had the girls pick up the midfield disk line.  They now played 4v4 to two goals.

Each half of Round #2 lasted for 6 minutes.

III. 4v4 Challenge - Round #3

Finishing Work - Volleying Technique

Set Up

• Same as One Touch Lay Backs

Procedure

• A passes to B who flicks the ball up and catches it, then tosses an underhand ball up in the air for A to volley after one bounce

Make It Competitive

• If B does not flick the ball up and catch it, any goal scored is +1 point
• If B flicks it up and catches it, then +3 points for a goal if the GK touches it, +6 points for a clean goal

Coaching Points

• Toe down, ankle locked
• Contact the ball at a point below your knee - patience for the ball to drop
• Upper body over the ball at impact
• Looking for top spin on the ball

Field Play - 4v4 to Goal

Set Up

• Same as above
• 4x2 yard crease around each goal

Procedure

• Play 4v4 to goal
• No player may enter the crease (this prevents a defender from standing right in front of the goal)

Make It Competitive

• +1 point for each goal

Coaching Points

• Let them play

IV. Power Finesse

Set Up

• 2 teams of 8 lined up about 25 yards from goal at two starting disks
• All the soccer balls with the coach to one side of the goal

Procedure

• Blue goes first
• Coach passes a ball out to the top of the box, 16 - 20 yards from goal for the player to shoot first time (without controlling the ball first) - this is the power shot
• Immediately after the shot, the coach throws another ball out for the same player to finish about 8 yards from goal - this is the finesse shot
• The finesse pass out can be rolled on the ground, though I try to play a ball in the air for these girls to finish on the volley or with their head
• GK must hold their line on the finesse shot - not come off their line to smother the ball prior to the shooter getting a shot off

Make It Competitive

For a player to remain in the game, they must score either their power shot or their finesse shot
If a player missed both shots, they are out of the game and wait behind the goal
If a player who is out catches a ball that is shot over the net by the opposing team, they are back in the game
If the shooter scores one of the two shots, they return to await their next turn in line
If they score both goals, they get to pick one player on the other team who takes a turn immediately after begin selected and MUST score both goals to remain in the game
Last team to have a player "alive" in the shooting line wins the game
