I watch the boys technique and encourage quickness and maximum effort.

Interruptions are kept to a minimum. I only interrupt to demonstrate and show my players the correct form, footwork and proper body movement.

Age makes a big difference in how the player performs various soccer drills with and without the soccer ball.

Water break is taken after every 4 reps.

Ball Control and Creativity Youth Soccer Training Practice

Youth Soccer Training 9/15/2019

I am still using the same training grid except for removing the agility ladders and agility poles.

Instead, I place 4 big cones on each side to simulate defenders for the players to dribble around.

Boys start on the outside of the cones and dribble the soccer ball up and back through the channel before attacking the defender cones.

I always encourage short controlled touches on the soccer ball.

⚽️ BALL CONTROL, CREATIVITY AND SHOOTING

  • (12:45) DRIBBLE THE SOCCER BALL UP AND BACK THROUGH THE GRID, GET CREATIVE DRIBBLING AROUND CONE SET UP DEFENDERS, AND FINISH WITH A SHOT ON GOAL - 4 REPS
