Here we have a pre-season practice that will test our player's quick sprints, turns and ability to compose themselves to combine in the 2 v 2 game! 🙌

🔥 Developing the High Press | 25-P13

It's time to develop your teams ability to be proactive and press high to win possession in this advanced lead practice. You will call out a random number from 1-6, indicating where the secondary coaching team must start their possession. The primary coaching team, Red, must react quickly to these calls and press at a high intensity to win possession high up on the field. Quality decision-making, working together as a cohesive unit and high levels of communication are key in this one! ⚽️🔥

⚽️ Possession to Penetrate | 43-P10

Do your players need help progressing play when in possession? This phase of play practice focuses on this specific aspect of the game. The objective is for the team in possession to combine using the floaters to play through either gate and back through either gate to be rewarded with a goal. Once this occurs, the possession team starts with the ball back in the deep zone. If the defenders win possession, the the two teams switch roles and the ball starts in the deepest zone. Passing quality and accuracy to maintain possession, providing support in front and behind the ball and off-the-ball movement into space created by teammates are key points in this practice! ⚽️💪

🎉 Advanced Centre Backs | 52-P7

The modern game requires our Centre Backs to be comfortable on the ball and to start/create attacks by stepping out of the back line and into more advanced areas on the pitch. This pattern of play will look at different scenarios that we can use to work on this aspect of the game. We have three different variations, each working different combinations that our advanced Centre Backs can use in the middle to final third parts of the pitch. Let's work hard on the training field and watch as they patterns are used on game day! 🎉⚽️

🔥 Switch Play & Back Post Deliveries | 83-P7

This practice takes place in a full half of the pitch, focusing on a pattern play to develop switches and back-post deliveries. Two groups execute set patterns, emphasising wide combinations and receiving in the half space for delivery. We can enhance this by introducing defenders, elevating the challenge for attackers. Emphasise accurate, well-weighted switches, realistic build-up movements, and quality back-post deliveries throughout. 🎉⚽️ 

🎯 Cone Throwing Target Range | WU-29

Developing the fun/social side of the game can be just as important as developing the technical/tactical side when building your team. This fun warm up is designed to do just that, while also focusing on players dribbling, awareness and finishing. Players will dribble through the "Target Range", looking to avoid the cones being thrown at them, and getting their team a point for each goal they score. After both teams have gone through the range, the team with the most points is declared the winner. The losing team will have to do a physical forfeit chosen by the winning team! ⚽️

⚽️ Combinations & 2 v 2 Attacks | 86-P5

This skill practice is focused on refining combination play and 2v2 attacks! In a compact 30 by 30-yard area, three attackers combine around mannequins while defenders move through the agility circuits. Attackers pass and combine, while defenders aim to disrupt in a 2v2 scenario. With seamless transitions, this session offers valuable skill development for players at every level.⚽️🔥

🔥 Speed, Agility & Finishing | Warm Up ( WU-33 )

Get ready for an invigorating warm-up designed to ignite players' passing precision, agility, and scoring ability in preparation for the session ahead. Players are split into two groups, working through identical circuits simultaneously. Players will combine, sprint around poles and receive through balls before driving with the ball to finish in the mini goals. Let's get our players sharp and ready for the rest of the session! ⚽️

🎉 Developing the Switch | 50-P7

In this practice, we prioritise the crucial skill of switching play to exploit space effectively. Players engage in short passing sequences before executing precise switches to our full backs in space out wide. Our full backs will receive on the run before switching play again to the opposite winger, getting them comfortable playing these passes for when the opportunities arise on game day. We have two progressions to this practice that focus on our wingers ability to receive and drive and 1 v 1 duels.🔥⚽️
