Coaching it

How to get more from these practices.

From pattern to game

At this age players can link a rehearsed movement to a decision in a game. Pair a pattern or technical practice with a small-sided game on the same theme, so the movement they practise is the one they look for under pressure.

Timing over speed

Most attacking detail here is about when to move: arriving as the pass is played, checking away before showing, and making the run that opens space for a teammate.

Finish every attack

Give every attack an end product, whether that is a goal, a target player or an end line to dribble over. Players learn to finish moves when finishing is the point of the practice.
