Is it possible to filter the drills by what age they are appropriate for?

Hi Jason,

At the moment, the drills are only available to view by category.

We try to cater for everyone`s needs, and the vast majority of the drills are suitable for beginner - intermediate level players, with quite a good range for more advanced players.

We felt it best to organise by category, for the benefit of planning sessions. Then if there is a generic theme to a session, all of the drills for that theme (e.g. defending) can all be found together.

If organising by age group/difficulty would be a more popular method, we may consider changing in future.

Hope this helps.
