The 5-Minute Football Coach #135
One-touch passing, River game, New manager checklist
Hi there,
I hope you’re all well. Here are your tips for this week:
⚽️ Warmup of the week
Let’s start with a one-touch passing warmup. Repetition makes perfect!
One Touch Passing Pattern! ⚽️🔥
Close range pattern that is great to get those touches on the ball.
With younger groups, challenge them to build as a long of a successful streak as possible or keep count within a time frame to add challenge and competition.
🥅 Game of the week
Next, this ‘river game’ SSG looks like a great basis with many different variations:
This week's #SundayShare - the classic 5v2 river game. Adjust the spacing between grids and the rules for switching (flighted vs direct ball, intercepts allowed prior to switch) and distance between grids based on age/ability/objectives @SundayShare10
💡 Idea of the week
Lastly, a nice checklist full of common sense, for new managers or for your new season:
Great presentation by @coachingbadges Gavin Teehan as part of @power_ray #CoachDevelopmentProgramme #LifelongLearning ⚽️
Hope you enjoyed this - until next time!
