Any good ideas for individual training for juniors during lockdown? Asked using Sportplan Mobile App
I love this drill but we only have 3 practices a week so on the other days how are my players getting better game awareness. I just wish there was a drill that if you could get the right equipment, you could get better game awareness by yourself.
Can you recommend me with some drills that my players can do at home outside, on their own. Specifically ball and contact work, mainly for forwards.Thank you

Getting quite frustrated that my u10's are not using the space on the pitch and tend to bunch up. Despite various drills and game scenarios to force them to spread out and pass to someone in space they revert in any game to bunching up around the ball and taking it back into the thick of the opposition rather than looking left or right! Any ideas how to change their ways?
