Shooting & Finishing

Not sure which Shooting & Finishing level is right for your player? While age recommendations provide a helpful starting point, player placement is ultimately based on current technical readiness. Our goal is to ensure every player is training in an environment that appropriately challenges them while building confidence and supporting long-term development. If you would like guidance on the best fit for your player, please contact us at Admin1@OnFrameSoccer.com.

Foundation Shooting & Finishing

Recommended U8–U10 (starting at age 7)

Designed for players developing confidence and consistency in shooting technique, finishing, first touch, and striking the ball cleanly with both feet.

Most common for U8–U10, but open to any player continuing to build the technical foundation needed to create and finish scoring opportunities.

Following a player’s first session, OFS coaches may recommend a different training level to ensure the best developmental experience and level of challenge.

  • Proper shooting technique & ball striking fundamentals
  • First touch into finishing space
  • Finishing with both feet
  • Shooting from different angles & distances
  • Timing runs & attacking movement
  • 1v1 finishing & game-like repetitions
  • Building confidence, composure, and decision-making around the goal
  • Intentional training that teaches players how to train, apply, and perform in games

Competitive Shooting & Finishing

Recommended U11+

Designed for players who have developed a strong technical foundation and are ready for a faster-paced training environment focused on game-realistic finishing, movement, combination play, and decision-making in and around the box.

Most common for U11+, but open to any player who demonstrates the technical ability and readiness for this level of training.

Following a player’s first session, OFS coaches may recommend a different training level to ensure the best developmental experience and level of challenge.

  • Advanced finishing under pressure & at speed
  • Combination play into finishing
  • One-touch & quick-release finishing
