Hi Ken, just DM'd you! 

Hey Adam, great post and really appreciate you sharing this so honestly.

If I were you, I’d dedicate the next 2 to 4 weeks purely to building confidence playing out from the back. Focus specifically on your GK, centre backs and central midfielders who are your main link players.

Keep your sessions tight and realistic with small sided games where space and time are limited. This will force them to improve their angles, scanning habits (checking shoulders) and first touch, especially taking their first touch away from pressure.

A few key tips to build that understanding:

- Encourage them to keep playing under pressure. Mistakes are fine, even in games, as long as the intention is right

- Focus on their speed to get on the ball and how often they are checking their surroundings before receiving.

- Work on body shape and angles to always create at least two passing options for the GK or CBs.• As they start to find more comfort in those tight spaces, open up the area gradually so they can feel the benefit of those improved habits in more space.

The biggest thing is giving them permission to make mistakes while learning. The confidence to keep trying will be key. It won’t happen overnight, but you’ll definitely start to see real progress if you stay consistent with this approach.

Keep us updated, and maybe we can jump on a call at some point to go through.

Vasilis Alexandrou Vosniadis can you direct message me so we can ensure you have received this. I'm sure I emailed you confirmation as well. 

Leonardo Nobrega it is a tough one. It's probably for high able U11s and the progressions would more than likely not be implemented until U12s. 

Hi fabian ramirez I've sent you an email and DM. Let me know if you have received it. 👌

Sanin Muminović Great stuff! Let me know how it goes.  👍

Jaime C Smith good spot. I suppose you could do it either way, focus on quick switch of play with less space and longer pitch to play in.. but 40 wide and 30 long makes more sense here. 

Hi Sanin, it looks like you have now been able to access and download your season plan from store.touchtight.com. Can you please confirm?

Hi Adam, I see you purchased the video version which means you have the ebook which you have downloaded separately and also have access to all videos here on the app. Just ensure you are logged in and access the season plan you purchased and you will be able to watch all videos in there.

Hi Lawrence, I've just checked and you have access to this Season Plan. Just ensure you are logged in and can view all videos. I'll resend the ebook to you now via email if you can confirm receipt. Thanks again!
