Disciplining for misbehaviour? 8-11 year olds, they dont really get bored because i know that sometimes that can be the cause. How or what can i apply a bit of strictness into the team.
I am running a summer session for ages 5 - 11. The session will last for 3 hours, I am only used to doing 1 hour session. amp; lt;br / amp; gt;Has anyone got any drills / ideas to keep the children interested for this length of time? amp; lt;br / amp; gt;Thanks in advance. amp; lt;br / amp; gt;Jon.
I am a coach of a U10 girlâs team, who for the majority haven't previously played. I'm finding that they are now shying away from the ball and moving backwards instead of closing the gap, tackling or putting the attacking team under pressure when they have the ball. Does anyone have any tips or drills that I can use to help them overcome this?
Is there a recommended order to teach drills? For example, if teaching dribbling, which drill would I teach first and then second, third etc. This is for inexperienced 9 year olds.
What activities work well for students aged 9-11? For some context I am a PhysEd teacher in Australia and classes consist of 25-30 students. Thanks!
