Hi jason D., great to see you are doing so well with your team!

Most of our Pre-Season/Physical exercises focus on SAQ with a ball - but there are a lot that you can adapt to use without a ball. 

Here is the link to our Full Pre-Season Library

A few examples of practices you could adapt:

Remember to work both sides of the drill to develop technical balance - if you have a goalkeeper available, you can get them involved and switch out the medium sized goal for a normal goal. ⚽️

If you have no Goalkeeper available - coaches can set up target areas in the goals using cones/poles for players to hit with each finish. Repetition, repetition, repetition! 💪

This is a really quick short sharp combination - so players won't be standing for too long. If you do have more players, you can work both sides at the same time to quicken things up. Be adaptable to your situation 💪

How could you progress/add variety to this exercise? Let us and your fellow coaches know below 🙌

If you have more players, set up two circuits to work through simultaneously, ensuring players aren't standing too long at the start station. We want players working at a high intensity throughout - short sharp passes and a burst to sprint out!

How would you adapt this practice further? 🤔
