This is a good exercise for conditioning:
The group has to stand in a row and you let them start dribbling.
As soon as the trainer blows his whistle, the last one of the row should run forwards.
You do this until everyone has been there and then you let them finish running the track.

Add to training

Let the team run for about five minutes and then continue with the following exercises:
put out the pilons as shown in figure one.
Have the team make two rows on the sideline at the height of the 23-metre line.
Perform the following running exercises on the dotted line:
- Knee lifting (constructive 50%, 80%, 100%).
- Heel to buttocks (building 50%, 80%, 100%).
- Sideways
- Cross step.
- And finally, release the arms.

Add to training

Put out the pilons as shown in figure three, distribute the balls over pilons C and D.
In this exercise you place one player each at pilons C and D, the rest of the team will line up at pilon A.
From A the player runs around the pilon, from the pilon the player makes a sideways movement facing the ball (facing C).
Player C plays the ball in the forehand of A, A takes the ball and opens to the right, runs towards the circle and finishes at goal.
From here, he runs towards D and receives another ball.
The player spins open to the left and finishes on goal again.

Add to training

The exercise is meant to simulate a game.
It is therefore intended that one team consists of the defenders/defending midfielders and the other team consists of the attackers.
The attackers can score in the normal goal (decide if they can hit high as in the game).
The defending side can score by driving the ball.
Over the line of the goals on the half way line.
The attackers learn to play over and finish at goal and the defending side learns to defend to the outside.

Add to training

Put out six pilons in a row with +/- five meters between each pilon.
This is best done on the 23 meter line as shown in figure 1.
Again make two rows and let the team sprint from the sideline to the first pylon and back, then from the sideline to the second pylon and back.
Repeat this until the sixth pylon.
After these sprint exercises let the team run half a lap.
