Tony Mee

Coaching Sessions

Developing play in the attacking third

Attacking

This session is all about developing play in the attacking third and coaching players to finish from balls crossed into the penalty area. We would run this as a full squad practice, so although the focus would be on finishing from crosses, the defensive and midfield units within the team would get some specific work from the session too.
