Football: Back Post Corner

Excellent site with easy to navigate pages.
Lawrence

DESCRIPTION

Again, the signal made between player and corner taker before the ball is played into the box.

A player should be on the front post, with three attackers making runs into the area between the back post and the six-yard line. They should attack the goal by heading, or look for an alternative player.

COACHING POINTS

  • The player on front post should be ready to flick on the ball, if the delivery is not good enough to reach the back post.
  • The player who gave the signal at the back of the box should run as if going to play short in order to create space.
  • The player on edge of area on corner takers side should make a late run into the back post area outside the 6-yard zone.
