🎉 Pressing Activation | 88-P4

Do your players recognise when to press in games and how quickly do they react to sprint out and apply this pressure? This technical pressing activation works on these important aspects of defending. In a small 10 by 10-yard area, players will receive passes while the player on the opposite mannequin will sprint out and put them under pressure. We have added a simple progression to challenge players ability to read the game and react quickly. 💪⚽️

⚽️ Corners, Crosses & 1st Time Finishes | 30-P9

Delivering the perfect corner can make the difference in tight games! This practice not only focuses on corners, but develops attackers ability to quickly reset and attack the 2nd phase wide cross and also includes 1st time finishes from the edge of the box. This will cover all the different aspects of attacking corner kicks, giving your players confidence when chances present themselves on match day! 🔥 ⚽️ 

🔥 Defend the Goal 1 v 1 | 60-P1

How comfortable are your players defending 1 v 1? Do they understand the technical principles involved in defending these scenarios? This simple technical practice will work on these aspects of defending. We have a 1 v 1 defending zone, with the primary objective for the defender to get tight to the attacker and stop them from turning. If the defender wins possession, blocks the shot on goal or forces the attacker out of the zone, they are awarded with a point. 🔥⚽️ 

🎯 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! ⚽️

⚽️ Dribbling & Finishing Circuit | 76-P2

This technical circuit focuses on developing dribbling, passing and finishing. Players will dribble between the poles, pass to team-mates and finally dribble through the cones and finish in a 1 v 1 with the GK. We have added a progression to incorporate 1-2's, increasing the amount of passes played in the circuit and increasing the need for concentration throughout the circuit. Let's develop strong technical foundations for our players! 🙌⚽️

🎉 1st Touch, Passing and Fitness | 84-P1

Developing strong technical foundations are key to improving our players overall game. This practice focuses on this, specifically looking at players 1st touch and passing & volleying accuracy. We setup by splitting players into groups of three, with one player from each group starting in the centre as the working player. Working at a high intensity in the central area and receiving with an open body shape to turn out quickly are key to excelling in this practice. 💪⚽️

🔥 Possession, Overloads & Speed | 28-P13

It's time to increase confidence in build up play, exploiting attacking overloads and developing the physical aspect of the game all in one practice! This advanced lead session is split up into three areas, each with a different type of possession set up. At random times, coaches will whistle triggering a 3 v 2 attack and sending the rest of the players out to perform sprints between the outside cones until the attack ends. Players must work at a high intensity throughout this practice! 💪⚽️

⚽️ Build from the Back (433) | 28-P10

It's time to develop our teams confidence and ability to build play from the back in this phase of play practice. Our teams first objective is to beat the 1st line of the press and play into the floater who switches play into either wide zone. Attackers must then beat the defenders in the 2 v 2 using individual skill, quick combination play and teamwork to finish in the mini goals. Developing high quality press beating passing in the 1st phase of play can create great advantages for our team further up the field! 💪⚽️
