The new season is almost upon us, it?s important to get your players to be comfortable on the ball again, passing smoothly and receiving the ball effectively so they?re ready for their first competitive game.
In this plan, players will practice different techniques for moving with the ball work and passing in pairs - so you can be sure they will all have quality time to perfect their dribbling, turning and their ability to add the correct weight to a pass.
Is this plan easy to set up?
All the practices are incredibly simple to set up so you won't spend all your time placing cones. it can also be tailored for differing levels of player and allows you to quickly get large groups of players passing and moving - giving you ample opportunity to go round and assess your players' skill and fitness levels.
With more experienced players, place them under match conditions and you'll be able to tax both their aerobic and anaerobic energy systems - preparing these techniques in preparation for match play.
