The Programme
Technical DNA
Players develop a range of techniques to manipulate the ball. Players will be given a range of "floor work" and "aerial" challenges to help them travel in multiple directions using different surfaces and become more dynamic individuals.
1-V-1 Defender in Front
Players will practice and develop an understanding of different techniques to manipulate the ball in a 1-v-1 scenario. They will understand the strategy behind the "when" and "how" to beat an opponent and apply these in practice.
1-V-1 Defender Behind
Players will identify the key methods of beating an opponent who is behind you. They will explore a variety of techniques required when facing away from the goal in order to create space and opportunities to play forward.
Fundamentals and Goalscoring
Players will practice a range of different passing and receiving techniques, and will also explore and practice different finishing techniques to support the development of players' goalscoring.
