The 5-Minute Football Coach #125

Finishing drill, Defend the cone, Matchday nerves

Hi there,

Hope you’re all well! Here’s your tips for this week:

⚽️ Warmup of the week

First, a quick agility and finishing drill, which could be used as a warmup:

AS Roma SAQ & Finishing ⚽️🇮🇹 Shooting can be one of the trickier areas to cover but I like the connection and inclusion of the different roles within this activity. Rotate roles regularly and encourage confidence and composure when shooting.

🥅 Game of the week

Next, this 6v4 ‘defend the cone’ game looks good to work on cutting passing lines, and on passing to create better angles:

Southampton Aztecs @SotonAztecs

6v4. Reds have to defend the tall cone inside the box. Blues have to hit the cone with the ball. If the Reds steal the ball, they must score in one of the four small goals. Players cannot enter the box. Made by @SSPlanner Find out more: bit.ly/3z9Wyrb #SundayShare

💡 Idea of the week

Lastly, a useful infographic to share with your players, in case they get too nervous during matches!

I hope you enjoyed this. Until next time!
