This weekend, a parent told me their child wasn’t getting enough playing time because the coach “just wants to win.” Let’s talk about why that approach is failing our young players 👇

Ball control is a fundamental skill in football, allowing players to maintain possession & set up their next move. Whether receiving a pass under pressure or creating space to attack, effective ball control is vital. Here's some coaching points 👇

A simple but powerful exercise: 4v4 Passing Game. Small area, clear rules, and tons of touches. Great for decision-making and transitions. 🧵

Shielding the ball is essential for retaining possession when under pressure from opponents. It helps players create time and space to make their next move. Here's how to coach it 👇

A good week of training from the group working towards fixture tomorrow. #coaching #developing #learning #fixtures #training

Framework for Build Up Play ➡️ Attract – Escape – Progress 1️⃣ Attract: Invite pressure with composure. 2️⃣ Escape: Play out of the first line. 3️⃣ Progress: Move through midfield with control @Coach_Osku @LloydOwers @Tactica1Thinker @205_Academy @JB_SoccerCoach
