Hi there,
I hope you’re well. Here are your 3 coaching tips for this week:
⚽️ Practice of the week
First, a very good talk-through from Wayne Harrison of a session, seemingly simplistic, but focusing on awareness and movement. Simplest is often best!
🥅 Game of the week
Next, a 2+2v2 mini-game about defending while overloaded: deny and delay.

💡 Idea of the week

🧠Implicit learning
🤝Connect before correct
✔️Pull, don't push
