⚽️ Practice of the week
A small-sided game to encourage forward passing and movement, including give-n-go’s:
Brilliant game which players love to encourage forward passing, movement off the ball, and 3rd man runs in an ‘up, back & through’ style of play #sundaysession

📖 Topic of the week
The excitement of the new football season is upon us: new teams, new managers, young players taking part in their first training session.
And especially in younger age groups, players’ attention at training can be a challenge. Plan It Coach has some good advice on how to handle this.
Definitely worth keeping your expectations in check, and staying positive!
💡 Idea of the week
Finally, a few simple questions to ask your players, to better tailor your coaching, and for self-reflection.
Interesting task I’ve done lately.
1. Have players describe themselves as a person in 3-5 key words
2. Have players describe themself as a player in 3-5 words
3. Have players describe you as a coach in 3-5 key words
4. Their training environment in 3-5 key words
Have a great week
