 👀 Scanning and Dribbling | Warm Up (WU-36)

This beginner practice focuses on developing players' scanning ability when receiving and driving with the ball. One player acts as the receiver, and the other as the defender. The receiver moves forward to receive a pass from the coach, with the defender following behind. As the coach passes the ball, the receiver must scan to see which direction the defender has committed to and then drive the ball around the opposite mannequin to finish in any of the mini goals. A simple yet effective practice to develop one of the most important aspects of the game!

🔥 Combinations to Penetrate and Finish | 82-P4

This technical finishing practice is designed to develop quick combinations around the box, creating goal-scoring opportunities. There are two attacking sequences working in opposite directions: one culminates with a finish past the goalkeeper, while the other ends with a finish in the mini goal. After each sequence, players rotate positions, allowing them to experience every role in the attack. To increase the challenge, a second phase can be added, with coaches delivering crosses from wide for the winger and striker to finish. Your attacking players will love this dynamic practice! 💪⚽️

↘️ Technical Switches of Play | 83-P4

This technical practice focuses on developing players' ability to switch play effectively. Players will work through a set sequence, combining with short passes before switching play to a teammate making a wide run. The player closest to the receiver will apply passive pressure, challenging the receiver to take a quality first touch to evade them. Two progressions increase the challenge: introducing a second ball and incorporating longer, more direct switches. Mastering these skills is essential for any team looking to dominate possession and exploit space!🔥⚽️

🎉 Attacking Transitions to Finish | 09-P11

Let's take a look at this medium-sided game which focuses on developing players' ability to exploit overloads and finish! In the first area, a 6 v 4 attacking overload challenges the possession team to finish within six passes. If the attackers miss the shot or fail to shoot within the pass limit, the coach will trigger a 4 v 2 counterattack with the players not involved in the initial attack. If the defenders regain possession in either area, they must pass to their attacking players to initiate a counterattack. This dynamic game helps players sharpen their decision-making and finishing skills under pressure! 🔥⚽️

Exploit Attacking Overloads in the Final Third | 09-P10

This phase of play practice focuses on developing players' finishing ability in the final third. We use two areas, alternating between them. The coach initiates the drill by passing to the attacking team, triggering a 6 v 4 attack. The objective for the attackers is to combine quickly and create opportunities to finish within an 8-10 pass limit. Once the attack ends, play shifts to the other half for another 6 v 4 attack. If the defending team wins possession, they can pass to their attacking teammates in the other half to trigger a counter-attack. We have two progressions that will keep your players engaged and challenge their decision-making in the final third! 🎉⚽️

Next week is a tough week for my team. We play 3 games in 7 days: tomorrow, Wednesday and Saturday. I want to keep the training sessions high quality, but I am worried the players will be burnt out for the games. Any advice on how to proceed and what sessions I should focus on would be greatly appreciated. We are a senior women's team and we train Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday.

🔥 Movement in Behind to Finish | 82-P1

This practice focuses on developing passing combinations to create goal scoring opportunities. Three players execute a set sequence, releasing the winger in behind for a 1 v 1 against the goalkeeper. As players get comfortable, a defender can be introduced, intensifying the challenge for the striker to receive and execute the pass in behind. Precise passes and well-timed movements to stay onside are crucial in mastering this drill.🔥⚽️
