Hi i coach an under 13s side and they play great pass and move football but we are weak when defending does anyone know any decent defence drills where they are required to work as a unit
I can not get my midfield to be combatative and stop the ball watching, Technically they are a strong unit,just switch off too much ??
Hi guys im a new coach this year we are 4 games into our league, my team is sruggling with marking players, is there any tips to help my under 9s.
Does anyone have any tips / advice or good drills that can help improve first touch for under 12's age group? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
every game we play the team always bunch up leaving space on the pitch, is there any session or drill i can do that will get them to space out on the pitch ?i coach u10 girls team
Hello All,I will be coaching my daughter's U16 Div 2 team this year, I just wanted to ask fellow coaches and mangers what to expect. I'm not new to the game, in fact I currently play in the state league myself, but there is a difference between playing the game and actually managing the team. I guess my questions lie around team management techniques and what should I look out for or what should I be aware of? The season starts in a month and training commences next week, so what is the best way to get the kids in shape fast? Thank you.
My back line does not want to move up the field when we have ball which throws us off in possesion bc it pins the 2 6s back. In practice they do it fine (including full field) but once we get into game they do not move? Any ideas
Best way to improve junior team in possession of the ball? To dictate the speed of the game
I have been trying to get my players to play a quick passing and movement game, but I am finding that a few players don't want to release the ball quick enough and then get caught on it.What drills would people advise I could use in training to get them playing this way?
does anyone have a 4 or 6 wk plan on possession football and creating switches.
Team keep getting thrashed every week - where to start? Having been the sole coach/manager of a little league team for the past two years, this year I lost all my senior players. I was therefore presented with 10 brand new lads, some of whom have never played competitive football. We are 8 games in and my lads are getting thrashed every week. The main problems are that they cannot get the ball out of their half, positions are usually a mess, finishing and chance creation are non-existent, and they don't apply any pressure or are unable to tackle. The main problems are keeping the ball as a team, getting it in the opponents half and staying there, and creating/finishing chances. I only have 1 and a half hours a week with them. I don't really know what to do, and I'm a little desperate. Does anybody have any advice? Thanks for literally anything.
