📖 Topic of the week

As most coaches are taking their teams up one age group this autumn, here’s a good reminder to think about the physical development of our players.

This article by Erica Suter covers 10 areas to take into account for training and coaching, and includes videos of specific exercises.

💡 Idea of the week

Finally, a simple coaching point from Michael Appleton on passing the ball with the top of your foot.

I hope you enjoyed this. Have a good week and stay safe!
