Hi Guy,

We don't have tactics or game stratergies on the site but we do have lots of training drills which lend themselves to practising game skills, techniques and plays.

One thing you can do is use the Chalkboard to sketch out your team's formations / plays or you can use this answers forum to ask other coaches tactical questions, getting new ideas and opinions.

All the best,
