🔥 Pre-Season 103: Sprint Races to Finish

This engaging pre-season practice hones players' sprinting and 2 v 2 game skills through a dynamic, fast-paced drill. The session kicks off with a sprint relay, where players tag their teammates to race across the pitch. Once the second tag is made, it triggers an intense 2 v 2 game. The team that completes the relay first gains possession from the coach and attacks the goal, while the opposing team defends and counters toward two mini goals. After each attack, players jog back to their stations to repeat the drill, alternating sides to experience attacking the large and smaller goals. This continuous cycle not only builds speed and endurance but also sharpens players' quick decision-making and teamwork under pressure. 🔥

This pre-season practice focuses on players passing combinations, SAQ and ability to switch play. Split into two areas that run simultaneously, players will work through the various stations and will end the sequence with a winger delivering for two attackers in the box. After the attack finishes, players will move through the agility stations on the side of the area. Ensure players work at a high intensity throughout this practice, using the time at different stations to recover for their next attack. Time movements, deliver passes & crosses with quality and be clinical with finishing! 💪

It's time to work on a hugely important aspect of the game: Speed and Endurance. In this pre-season practice, two players will race against each other through the circuit with the objective to maintain their intensity and enter the game area first. The first player inside the area starts with the ball in the 1 v 1 game and must look to use individual skill to beat the defender and finish in the mini goal. Teams must keep a tally of each time they finish and after 3 rounds we can see which team are the winners! 🤝

It's time to work on your players overall fitness and defensive work in this high press rondo practice! Working in teams of two, players will move through the SAQ station into a 5 v 2 Rondo where they must work together at a high intensity to win possession or force a mistake from the possession team. The players will then split and sprint out to the smaller 3 v 1 Rondo's on either side and press to win possession. Defenders must work as a unit to win possession and react quickly to sprint out after possession is won! 🫡

🔥 Pre-Season 88: Agility and Speed Circuit

This pre-season practice is designed to boost agility, dribbling, and speed. Two players work simultaneously, one from each station. Players will dribble with the ball and work through the agility exercises before tagging in a teammate. We have added two progressions to test different technical aspects and increase the workload on players in this circuit. This drill ensures high-intensity training, developing quick transitions and sharp skills.

🔥 Pre-Season 94: Sprints, Recovery Runs and 2 v 2's

This pre-season practice develops sprint speed and 2 v 2 game skills, designed to sharpen both physical and tactical abilities. Players are divided into two pairs: attackers and defenders. On the coach's call, both pairs sprint forward—the attackers racing towards the ball and the defenders chasing them down.

As soon as they enter the game zone, a 2 v 2 attack is triggered. The attackers must make at least one pass before finishing, while defenders can counter-attack and score past the goalkeeper if they win possession.

After the attack ends, all players sprint to the corner cones and return to the starting position. Roles are swapped in the next round, ensuring a dynamic and challenging session that sharpens speed, teamwork, and game tactics.

⚽️ Pre-Season 96: Speed Endurance & Games

This pre-season practice is designed to boost your team's speed endurance and small-sided gameplay. Players are divided into two teams, each starting in opposite corners of the field.

The session begins with endurance runs, following specific speed intervals: 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80% along designated sides of the area. On the coach's call, a 7 v 7 game is triggered with a ball fed randomly to one team. After two balls have been used (resetting after a goal or when the ball exits play), players get a recovery period before starting their next run.

This engaging and dynamic practice not only enhances endurance but also sharpens tactical awareness and teamwork! 🙌⚽️

🔥 Pre-Season 95: Endurance Runs and Small Sided Games

This pre-season practice is designed to elevate speed endurance and sharpen 3 v 3 gameplay. Players are divided into two teams, each starting in opposite corners of the field and further split into groups of three. On the coach's whistle, two teams of three begin their endurance runs: sprinting at 85% speed along the widths and at 50% speed across. After completing their runs, they enter the game zone for an intense 3 v 3 match. Once a goal is scored or the ball exits play, the players leave the area to recover, triggering the next two groups to start their endurance runs. This dynamic session keeps players engaged and pushes their limits in both fitness and tactical play! 💪⚽️

⚽️ Pre-Season 93: Agility, Passing and Finishing Circuit

This pre-season practice is designed to develop your players' agility, passing, and dribbling to finish.

Players will navigate through the circuit, moving through agility ladders and hurdles to enhance quick footwork and speed. They will then engage in precise passing and receiving drills to sharpen their ball control and accuracy. The circuit culminates with the striker executing a show-and-go move, dribbling around a pole, and finishing with a shot past the goalkeeper.

This dynamic session ensures players stay energised, focused, and ready for the challenges of the new season.🔥⚽️

🔥Pre-Season 97: SAQ, Passing and Finishing Circuit

This pre-season practice focuses on developing speed, agility, quickness (SAQ), passing, and finishing skills. The drill begins with a series of dynamic passing combinations, followed by agility exercises such as sprinting, ladder drills, and hurdle jumps. Players engage in quick 1-2 combinations, precise passing, and strategic runs to improve their coordination and teamwork. The practice culminates in a fast-paced finishing drill, with players attacking deliveries into the box. This engaging and comprehensive session will sharpen your team's technical abilities and prepare them for the upcoming season. 🔥⚽️
