This Session has been designed to get younger players the basics! From Ball control, to Dribbling and Passing!
To make your players into little Pre-Maradonnas and not little prima donnas we have split this week's session into 5 clear sections, each working on a single aspect of your players' game which will then all be brought together in section 5 - The final mini-game which will give your players the chance to express themselves and show you what they've got!
Get to know your players, enjoy these exercises and get your players on the ball as much as possible in this footballing basics session!
