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.
What is the best warm up routine for U9 boys before a game? Thanks Coach Heath
Can I make the sketch chalkboard larger?
I coach 3 age groups 5s,6s and 8s. How long should each training session last ? Academy's train for a few hours!
When I log onto the mobile app my folders are different than when I log into Sportplan on my computer, can anyone help explain why?
When I share a link to my drill, the link goes to a sign up page...why isn't it showing the drill? Asked using Sportplan on Mobile
How can I add plans to my favourites or to the folders I have created in the folders section?
I can make a folder but I can not seem to get anything into the folder. I cam make a folder on my school profile but it will not save.
Hi I have quite a large squad (11) for my U9s team. Sometimes not all of them turn up but when they do managing the substitutions can be a nightmare. Have tried planning it out and making 3 subs on a rotation every 6 or 7 minutes. This works OK, just wondered how others do it? Thanks! Asked using Sportplan Mobile App
I can't get this to work. I cannot add any shapes or arrows. It says just click and drag but nothing is working. I am a first time user and have just subscribed but if it doesn't work I will rethink.

Set pieces account for roughly a third of all goals in football, yet many coaches spend surprisingly little time coaching defensive organisation at corners and free kicks. This article compares zonal and man marking systems, explores hybrid approaches, and provides a practical session structure for building set piece resilience into your team.
A player's first touch determines everything that follows: whether they can play forward, turn, or simply retain the ball. This article explores why training first touch in isolation is not enough, and how to design sessions that develop this critical skill under realistic game pressure.
