Passing progressions, Preparing for tournaments, Technique

Here are your highlights for this week:

Practice of the week

A nice series of progressions, from a simple passing practice to more match-like scenarios.

All of this accompanied by a good explanation of why training should be as match-like as possible.

Topic of the week

As the tournament season is well underway, Team Grassroots has a good summary on what to consider when preparing for a tournament. The point I would highlight: Define Success. It’s not just about winning!
