  Why our soccer practices are so effective:


PRACTICE SEQUENCE & DRILL DESIGN

Each practice plan follows the sequence of warm-up, soccer technical (skill) drill, fitness drill, tactical drill and scrimmage. The practices have a theme that follows throughout the session. The sequencing of drills is one of the key proprietary components of our program. It has been researched, tested and proven to be extremely effective in optimum development of skill, fitness, tactical understanding and mental training.

A cornerstone of our program is the principle of including ball work in everything we do.

Warm-Up

Our warm-ups are a set of four low intensity, yet technically and tactically challenging mini-drills. After each drill is a stretch to ensure proper muscular progression.

Technical Skill

Our technical skills incorporate all essential elements such as ball control, receiving, passing, shooting into complex and demanding small group drills. You can easily monitor success and increase your demands on the players by requiring a faster pace and increased precision of execution.

Fitness Drill

Aerobic, anaerobic, speed, strength are developed while executing ball skills, thus more accurately reflecting game situations than traditional fitness training without ball. For the most part, players don't even realize that they are in a fitness drill.

Tactical Drill

Our tactical drills are mainly small group exercises. They are based on all tactical aspects of the modern game and support all systems of play and game tactics. Specific areas and styles of defense, midfield and attacking models are trained in small functional units.

Scrimmage

The scrimmages at the end of the session bring together all the elements of the prior drills. They also are designed to prepare your team for the next game. You can easily incorporate and test various line-ups and game strategies into the scrimmages, right up to a full rehearsal for your next opponent.


ADDITIONAL FEATURES

There are instructions as to how you might want to sequence the practices based on your season and team need.

Practices are designed to be easy to demonstrate, maximize player touches on the ball.

In addition to soccer skill and team tactics, they incorporate fitness, agility, communication, problem solving and mental fitness training.

Each of the drills for each of the practices is on its own page that fits on a clipboard and has room for notes.

This allows the coach to create different practice sessions from the 50 drill pages (80 drills) available.

So if you wanted to run a practice involving more passing, use drills with passing themes.

If you wanted to sequence warm-up-technical-technical-tactical-scrimmage, you can put those together.

There is a summary page outlining the main focus of each of the drills.

You are getting 10 complete practice sessions and the ability to now mix and match 80 drills into many more practices.

Samples of practices and drills are on the site with each of the books for you to try before you buy.

There is no other soccer practice help like this available anywhere else.


P.S.

I have run all of these practices with my teams and will vouch for their effectiveness
