Hey Declan, I think everyone has their own preference but for me I would focus on Cardio with and without the ball in the first few weeks, mixing short (anaerobic) and long (aerobic) work. Small number possession games (2 v 2/3 v 3s) can work wonders for short sharp work and you can always adjust timings depending on what you want to get out of them (speed endurance also key). I would maybe leave shape work until at least week 2, possibly week 3 and then have a real focus on shape with and without the ball once you have a fitness base with your players. Hope that helps. 👍

Hi Eric, yes we have some practices and themes for this formation. In fact Theme 1 - Attacking Centrally is loosely based on the 3412 or 352 Point Up.. https://touchtight.co/attacking-central-areasHere are a few more that might come in helpful for you..https://app.touchtight.com/programs/352-paired-striker-movementhttps://app.touchtight.com/programs/10-p9_v1-c8c196https://app.touchtight.com/programs/formation-study-352-v-352-581ce6https://app.touchtight.com/programs/01-p11mp4-986a84

Greg lawson this is great feedback! Great to see that even at the younger ages that players are able to adapt to the sessions with tweaks to make them easier to implement in their program. Hope they have continued with this level of performance and are continuing to grow each and every sessions. Brilliant! 👌

Hey Raphael, we should have some 4231 content here https://app.touchtight.com/categories/formations. Will definitely be building on top of this formation theme. 

Yes Ryan, this is an absolutely ideal situation that we are striving for. I know we can get to this point eventually and are working behind the scenes. At the moment, the practices, sessions and curriculums can be filtered by type (attack/defence), player numbers, age groups etc. so this gives you some examples from which to select. You can then add these to your own playlists on the app and even add to personal calendars. But I know what you mean, to be able to click any filter and for the system to provide AI like solutions (from a tactical perspective in your suggestion) for your season plans.. 🤔🤞  

Hey JP, just to let you know we have released our first Pattern of Play practice for the 7 v 7 Formation analysis and also a 9 v 9 Possession-Based practice for that theme as well. 

Just checked and PDF now seems fine.. All ok your side now Eric?

Ha! We’re UK as well James.. think we’re all a little bit reserved. Welcome to the group 💪

Thanks Andrew. Yes we are working on these to be released in the coming weeks, as we know this is planning time for many!We try to ensure practices in sessions have a similar number and can be adapted as required, so yes will double check that we create plans for maybe 5-8 players, 9 to 11 players etc. so there a little wiggle room. 

Let us know how you and your team have or are looking to apply these key concepts! 🤗
