Maximize your Season: Coaches Resource #3
Connecting with Players, Flicks & Practice Plans
Your team will have had at least one game this point in the season.
How is it going!? Surprised? Shocked? Confused? Please start a conversation, below!
1 - Soccer Parenting
Now we're in the 'flow' of the season with practice and games, we're all taking a good look at what's going on, and here is where there may be some disconnection...
Coaches, Parents, and how they're disconnected.
2 - Skill School
After working on balances last week, we're now getting creative with 'flicks'.
Can you and your players do it? Who can do it the best!?
3 - Practice Plans
7v7 - Improve preventing the opponent from scoring.
9v9 - Improve building up in the opponents half to create scoring chances.
These plans are recommended in this order to help your team adapt to the game day demands, and based on their experience. However, you can do whichever weekly plan you would like to. You might do this based on what you saw at the weekend, or what specific areas you would like to work on, but remember that the plans are games-based so the players get to practice the opposite of the focus, also. Preventing opponent from scoring also means players are working on scoring :-D
Have a great week!
