Hi, what drills are best for ensuring players keep their knees bent?
Hi again Sportplan. I have recently been appointed the provincial head coach for the province i live in in Zimbabwe. I have been a selector for the u13 girls provincial side for three years prior to this. This is the first time i will be working with girls that i have not had the opportunity to build a raport with. My question (s) are as follows%3A 1)The Interprovincial Tournament is to be held on sand and astra turf fields this year. My girls will be at a destinct disadvantage living in the country we only play on grass fields. What would be the best way to prepare them for the fast, more predictable nature of turf play? 2)What would be the best way to gel the team quickly as it is made up of girls from many different schools? We only have two practise sessions available as a team before the tournament? Thanks, i hope you can give me a few more ideas to work with. Jason Zimbabwe
we started the season 5-1 and now mid-way it seems we are fading? we have lost our last 3 games - what are some good drills to get them focused again and pumped for the rest of the season and to get them over the hump -to the next level. thanks
I know a couple of starter drills such as possession in a box --> progress by adding two jokers outside that either team can pass to.Can anyone else make any more advanced suggestions please?Thanks,Tiffany
Does anyone have any ideas for developing players understanding of creating angles of attack during a 1V1?
Hi all, after "volunteering" at the last minute to coach last season, I'm looking forward to coaching again this season but would like to be a bit more organised starting the season. Last season I used drills from here (thank you contributors) and put together a practice plan each week addressing what I thought were our weakness from the game just played. This got us through the season, we were promoted after grading and finished the season in the top 4 playoffs for our grade.I wonder if there is some kind of guide to putting a more coherent training plan together for the season.I'm coaching a boys secondary school team, aged 12-18. What kind of skills should they have mastered?What should they be attempting, working towards mastering (individually and as a team)?I last played as a collage boy on grass fields, the change to turf pitches has obviously obsoleted (along with age) much of what I knew as a player.Any pointers appreciated.David
Does anyone have any good drills to practice or strategies to use for self-starts under the 25? It should be an advantage for the attack, but we seem to give up possession more than we keep it.
I want my team to work together and play as a team instead of against each other

We need to talk about the basics of hockey but any advice re coaching them on not bunching and drills to help with this would be much appreciated. Thank you.
I want to involve some drills that isolate the escaping drill (recognising a threat and turning away to keep possession) and incorporate into a game situation.
What drills can i use to demonstrate posting up to maintain possession? any progressions?

I have been using Sportplan now for 3 years and can honestly say that I have never repeated the same session twice. My girls are always focused and are improving every year. Thanks Sportplan.
What a fantastic tool. The Chalkboard and session tools make an unbelievable difference in making training plans in both time and organization. I will be instructing all of my assistant coaches that this tool must be used for all sessions during the season, so that we may build a club coaching resource library.
I can't get enough of the Sportplan, It has given me back the enthusiasm i was starting to lose. My girls are so keen and are ready at 14 to take the next up in their game. Sportplan will help no end.
