France - passing combination with finishing Finishing drill with three players with passing combination. Great finishing drill for the end of the training because of fast short passes and fast circulation of the players and changing positions. #France #football #soccer #coach

Topic of the week

The winter break is a great time to practice a bit of reflection on our coaching.

For a bit of inspiration, have a look at a fellow coach updating his coaching philosophy:

I've not updated my coaching philosophy since the start of my UEFA B about 2 and a half years ago so I thought I'd make a start, this is the first draft so it will need some refining but I'm interested in any feedback people would care to give. @CoachingFamily @ExchangeCoaches

Interesting reads which might trigger a thought or two!

Idea of the week

Something for when our team gets back together in early January… What about asking the players what their football superpower is? Great idea!

Mid season player reviews this week, we set our U12s the task of drawing themselves as a footballing superhero and telling us what their footballing superpower is. We think you'll agree that football isn't their only talent!😍💛💙
