Ground Flick - One on One

This is a game play drill to develop the ground flick technique

Organisation

• Divide the players into defenders and attackers
• The attackers line up 15 to 20m out from goal, each with a ball
• The defenders line up 10 to 15m out from goal on the same side
• On the whistle, the first attacker dribbles the ball towards a marker directly in front of goal
• The defender gives chase and attempts to dispossess the attacker using the ground flick
• If the attacker reaches the marker in possession they must be allowed strike for goal unopposed
• Reverse the roles and repeat the drill

STEP Variation

Player - Allow the attacking player to dribble in any direction and strike at any time
