Soccer drills

In pairs:

• Circle around field.
• Ball out of goal, dribble to center,
• Balancing exercise
• Dribble back to the goal
• Half circle around the field
• Wheelbarrow 
• Return on your back
• Half round field 

Team task:
Structure

Purpose:
Improve assumption to "move" opponent

Organisation: 

• Positioning game 3/4x1 in square box of 6x6. 
• pawn in the middle, team ball-possession must shoot this pawn for points, defender must prevent this. 
• Each player in team ball-possession is on one side of the square. 
• A player may only defend by intercepting a pass on a pawn. 
• Match/fun element can be reinforced by agreeing that the person with the most points has won after 5 minutes, the rest must for example do 10 push-ups or sprints. 
• Can be made more difficult by the fact that attacking party has to score in 10 passes.

Coaching:
Direction in assumption to "move" opponent, freeing up space to play towards pawn.

1.5 metres: 

• Because the defender is only allowed to intercept passes, there are no duels. 
• Furthermore, perimeter ensures that players in team ball-possession do not come closer than 1.5 metres. 
• the shape also invites players to keep the pitch as large as possible.

Team task:
Building up

Purpose:
Improve deep play at the right moment.

Organisation: 

• Field of e.g. 30x30, 
• Divided into 16 compartments. 
• On the 2 sides 
  • 2 goals. 
  • 2 teams of 6. 
  • 2 players per team are divided over 4 boxes at the back, 
  • 4 players all have their own square. 
• There is a box with defenders between the two parts of the team. 
• Four must reach the duos, the duos can score in goals (see picture). 
• More difficult: 
  • A maximum of 10 passes. 
• See picture.

• 1.5 metres: boxes prevent players from duelling with each other or getting close to each other.

• Player passes the ball to the striker.
• Striker bounces the ball back
• A player plays the ball deep into the corner.
• The Third Player sprints in that direction and passes the ball in front.
• The first player is sprinting along and finishes on the goal.

• Pairs of two
• one of them passes the ball and the other bounces it back.
• the bouncing player runs back and forth between a pilon and a the spot of bouncing.
• challenge is to play as much good bouncing balls as possible in 45 seconds.

Drafting:

• Field of 10m by 10m
• 1 or 2 magic trees (trainers) in the middle.
• 1 ball per player.
• Task 1: 
  • Players walk from one side of the magic forest to the other.
  • Without losing the ball.
• Task 2:
  • Players walk from one side of the magic forest to the other.
  • Without losing the ball. 
  • But watch out; the magic trees have woken up. 
  • And moving through the forest.
• Task 3:
  • Players walk from one side of the forest to the other.
  • Without losing the ball. 
  • But beware; the magic trees have woken up by a storm and are moving through the forest. 
  • But there are also branches and leaves everywhere.

• In this exercise, an attacker is played by a midfielder while he has a defender behind him. 
• The attacker must hold the ball for 5 seconds so that the midfielder can close in and receive the ball. 
• The defender must try to take the ball.

• Building to create opportunities, scoring goals
• Make the space to play as large as possible - width - depth
• Think deep and play deep if possible
• Keep the ball
• Principle: Width play serves as preparation / introduction / depth pass
• Optimal field utilization

• In a rectangle with a central strip, the players are divided into 2 groups facing each other.
• The exercise starts with 1 player with a jacket in the middle strip. This is the defender. 
• Players must cross with the ball, the defender must take the ball and play it off the field. 
  • the defender shall remain only on the central strip
• If a player loses the ball, they will also put on a jacket and help the defender. 
• Attackers thus keep running back and forth until there is one attacker left. 
• This is the winner.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

Do you want to get in better shape? You can, but it takes a few things.

• What do you need?
  • Pawns 
  • Football 
  • Clothes you can sport in  
  • Staircase 
• First of all, it is important that you make sure you warm up before you start working on your cardio!
• What should you do?
  • Run 2 pawns forward 1 to the back and repeat this every time. 
    • Do that 2x
  • Grab the ball and run 5 rounds with the ball. 
    • This will ensure ball control and as well as do something about your condition.
  • You can also do exercises indoors for your fitness, like running up and down the stairs 5 times. 
• Of course you can also give your own twist to how you want to do it, but I think this is the best and nicest way to improve it. 
• Don't try to run fast on the first day without stopping and take small steps!

• Make a square with pylons in which butter cheese and eggs can be played
• form two groups
• use 6 jackets, 3 yellow and 3 green
• Play butter cheese and eggs with the jackets
