To find out what the training is all about please read this document. Please note that all course will be paid by the club so ignore the cost figure.
We are running our own in-house training - this is not formal but a chance to share both problems and answers. Please come along with any issues you have and also drillls you like using, techniques that work and we can build our capacity as a coaching unit. The first session was hugely successful, we'll let you know when the next is on.
If you are short on ideas, here's a few drills you can use
-
Garry's favourite warm-up drill - coming soon
-
Garry's 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 drill - coming soon
- Jon's shoot-out drill - really good drill to get grades 7-10 communicating, thinking about space and creating opportunties, drawing opposition....it's huge! One session of this and Jon's team went from a total losing streak to winning 6-1. Save till the end of training coz the kids won't want to stop.
- Steve's pre game warm-up. An easy drill to set up to get a bit of passing and moving going. Needs 3 kids so you can run it as they begin to arrive. I notice their skills goes up significantly in the few minutes before the game - it gets them practicing ball skills and thinking about where to pass and what to do once they have passed.
