Welcome to issue #150 of the 5MFC!

This is a bit of a landmark for us, so here are 5 of the most liked videos that we shared over the last year.

Enjoy!

🏃‍♂️ Warmups of the year

First, a genuine classic: the ‘bulldog’ game, with dribbling.

Dribble across the area.Defenders try to win ball and play out of area. Progress to defender having to dribble to a goal or area if they win it..Keep ball close, move quick ⚽️⬅️↔️➡️⚽️ @plancoachplay @TacticalPad @Smedley033 @AmplifiedSoccer @CoachingFamily @TacticalThinker

Hungry Hippo Shuttles! 🎾🦛 Fun way to include acceleration into a competitive game against a partner. First player to get all their balls into the basket wins! https://t.co/zeZ00rruib

Pass, Gate & Move! 🌉⚽️ Love this activity for its simplicity, fluency and focus on timing of the pass. Great way to encourage young players to pass ahead of team-mates as opposed to at or behind them.
