Soccer Knows No Age!
Below you will find images and different soccer drills timestamped if you would like to skip through the video and see different soccer drills I used in this particular soccer training session.
I hope you find some value from this training session.
Soccer Training Drills Warm Up Juggling and Ball Control
Starting the soccer training session with juggling and touches on the soccer ball.
The beginning of the session is used to get 100's of touches with the soccer ball focusing on technique and touches on the ball rather than speed.
Boys are constantly encouraged to move with the ball and concentrate on the touches.
