Isn’t it great to finally say goodbye to a pretty disrupted, difficult year!
Here are this week’s 3 coaching tips:
⚽️ Drill of the week

Passing and receiving box- a great practice for players to work on their receiving skills moving the ball with their first touch & then passing it out to the opposite side. Ideal for players to practice receiving and passing with the inside and outside of both feet. @TacticalPad
🥅 Practice of the week

💡 Idea of the week

Until next time, have a great week and best wishes for 2021!
