💪 Pressing as a Unit (433) | 10-P14

Ready to level up your team's defensive pressing? This 11 v 11 practice on a full pitch is designed to develop your players' ability to apply coordinated defensive pressure. To start, the coach initiates a 3 v 3 attack versus defence scenario. If the defenders win possession, they transition the ball into the middle zone for a 7 v 7 battle. In this phase, the defending fullbacks (Red 2 and 3) must press high, working with the team to regain possession. If they succeed, they counter quickly, with an extra player joining to create a 4 v 3 attacking overload in the final zone. Coaches have the flexibility to restart play in either the first or middle zone, introducing different scenarios for players to navigate. Get your team mastering high-pressure situations and rapid transitions with this comprehensive practice! 💪⚽️

⚽️ The Dribbling Zones Game | Mini Ballers P43

Engage your mini ballers with this exciting small-sided game designed to enhance dribbling and awareness! In this practice, the objective for the team in possession is to have one of their players dribble the ball from Zone 1 to Zone 2, and then from Zone 2 to Zone 3, to finish the attack. The same player or a different player can dribble between the zones. If possession is won in the middle third, players must recycle the ball and dribble through all three zones. If the ball is won in the final zone (the possession team's first zone), the player can finish immediately. This game not only sharpens dribbling skills but also improves players' spatial awareness and decision-making under pressure, making it a fun and essential addition to your training sessions! 💪⚽️

🎉 End Zone Game | Mini Ballers P42

Ignite your mini ballers' passion with this small-sided game designed to sharpen their movement and finishing skills! We create two 5-yard end zones on either side of the area, with a central area for a 5 v 5 match. The goal is for the team in possession to combine passes and play through to runners who receive the ball in the end zones and finish unopposed in the mini goal. Defenders are restricted from entering the end zones when the attacker receives the ball but can retrieve it if the pass is misdirected or deflected. The team that scores the most goals within the set period wins. This dynamic practice enhances players' movement, passing accuracy, and finishing accuracy , ensuring they stay fully engaged and excited throughout the session! 💪⚽️

⚽️ Cone Goals Game | Mini Ballers P41

Get your mini ballers pumped with this fun small-sided game designed to sharpen finishing accuracy! In this game, the objective is for the team in possession to combine and create opportunities to score in any of the three goals. The central goal is worth 1 point, while the two side goals are worth 3 points each, as they are smaller and more challenging to hit. Coaches keep score, and the team with the most goals at the end of the set period wins the game. This engaging practice not only develops finishing skills but also keeps young players motivated and excited! 💪⚽️

🔥 The Mazy Run Game | 93-P6

Get ready for an exciting and dynamic small-sided game designed to boost your team's possession, ball control, and crossing to finish skills! To start, we have a 5 v 3 possession game where the attacking team aims to make a set number of passes before dribbling through one of the cone circuits. Once a player begins their dribble, two attackers make runs into the box to receive the delivery from the wide player and finish. If the defenders win possession, they combine and play through to a teammate in the attacking zone for a 1 v 1 finish against the GK. We can increase the challenge for the attackers by introducing recovering defenders to the game. This engaging setup ensures players develop essential skills while keeping the intensity and excitement high! 💪⚽️

🎯 3 V 3 Accuracy Game | 92-P3

This engaging game is designed to enhance players' ability to maintain possession and finish with precision! We have a 3 v 3 setup in the central area, with the objective that every player must touch the ball before finishing in the goal between the cones. Goals only count if they stay below cone height and enter the goal, even if they hit the cones. To keep the game intense, the coach restarts play quickly whenever the ball leaves the circle or a goal is scored. This dynamic practice is perfect for sharpening passing, teamwork, and finishing skills! 🎉⚽️

🎉 2 V 1 Overload Game | 92-P6

Get ready for an exciting small-sided game designed to master the 2 v 1 overload! The attacking team's objective is to build up play, ensuring both attackers in each zone touch the ball before progressing and finishing. If defenders win possession, they can break out and counterattack, with two defenders allowed in any zone at a time. Scoring defenders switch with any four attacking players for the next round. This game is perfect for developing quick decision-making, teamwork, and finishing skills! 🎉⚽️

⚽️ 🔁 Score and Back Game | 86-P2

Looking to enhance your players' dribbling, running, and finishing skills? This fun, dynamic practice will keep everyone engaged and on their toes. Players start by dribbling around the first area, waiting for the coach's call. When a number is called, the three players assigned to that number must break out, dribble through the middle zone, and finish in any mini goal. A missed goal means they’re out and must run behind the goal to collect balls. Scoring players retrieve their ball and rejoin the initial dribbling zone, ready for the next challenge. This practice helps players build confidence in their dribbling, identify open spaces, and drive towards the goal with determination! 🔥⚽️
