Soccer Striker
A scoring forward, usually a center forward (as distinguished from a “wing” forward, whose job might be to cross the ball to a striker) who is very skilled at scoring. There could be one or two of these. The term implies a player who is great at shooting & “finishing”. This player will sometimes stay “pushed up” when the rest of the team is back on defense. Many great strikers are poor defenders & if so they are called “pure strikers”. You can argue that a great striker is born & that the instincts & quickness required can’t be taught. (See “Wing” and the Section titled “Scoring More Goals”).
Soccer Forwards
(abb. “F”) Primary soccer scorers who play closest to the other team’s goal. The Right Forward (”RF“) is the one on the right facing the other teams goal; LF is on the left, & CF is center. Most soccer formations will have 2 or 3 forwards. Teach your forwards to be aggressive and opportunistic. They must fight to win the ball. (See “Soccer Formations“, “Soccer Positions“, “Soccer Striker” & “Soccer Wing“).
