I currently train a under 7's team - i cuurently use?
I currently manage and coach a under 7's team - i curently use the FA Level 1 coaching games as well as games from these webpages. We go indoor training from this week in a school hall - could anyone point me in the direction of some training games that could take place indoors - thanks in advance
Bench football is a great game i use this on my soccer coaching camps.
four benches one in each corner of the hall (could even use goals or gates as nets). split the group into 4 teams give them stupid name i.e burger king etc. give each player behind the benches a number for example 4 players in each team number 1-4.
ball in the middle
shout a number out
all four players with that number compete for the ball in the middle in a 1v1v1v1 situation.
aim of the game is to hit other teams benches to knock them out of the game. first player out get 0 points
2nd player out gets 1 point
3rd player out gets 2 points
last player gets 3 points.
players can only knock hit other teams benches for example
team 1 hits team 2 bench then team 2 go sit down
so now team 1 must hit team 3 and 4 bench if they hit team 3 bench they go sit down so there is only team 1 and team 4 left and they battle to hit each others bench 1v1.
coaching points
look for space to dribble into
small touches
be creative and try to take other player on
