Warm up & 1st part of session

Assistants to be alert at all times & encourage participation from all players

Warm up

Introduction from Farmer Coach welcoming the children to his farm - lay down the farm rules (Listen to farmer & have fun)

Farmer to ask children what type on animals live on the farm & they will warm up by doing that movement around the area

Cow = go slow

Chicken = Go fast with lots of steps

Pig = 3 steps then roll over

Horse - Bigger strides

Introduce ball (Tractor) - pig now = 3 toe taps then roll, horse now = sole roles infront of player

Progression - Working on the farm

Players are to be put to work on the farm, place cones down on all 4 sides on the hall creating pens for the animals. Players are now looking after the animals, making sure they have everything they need

Coach to ask what type of food do we need for the animals?

Players to dribble to each corner to check on animals

Coaching Points -

Close control of the ball (Don't crash Tractor)

Small touches

Scanning where other players are

Once they arrive at an animal pen -

Ball rolls = cleaning the pen

Toe Taps = Giving the animals food

Fast feet (Penguin feet - don't use penguin for this session as they will confuse with being on a farm)

Step over - locking up the pen

Second Progression - Catch the animals

The animals have escaped their pens whilst players were getting a drink & we need to catch them

Coach to scatter as many bibs & cones in the area as possible

Players to dribble round collecting the animals (bibs) and taking them back to their pens

Players then use locks (cones) to make sure they are safely back in the pen.

2nd part of the session

Entering the Farmhouse

Create a circle of cones in the middle which represent the Farmhouse

Farmer Coach needs all equipment & will allow players to rest but they are too muddy

Farmer Coach pretends to be asleep - all players will think its ok to enter the Farmhouse then

When Framer Coach wakes up he will get all players who are muddy out of the house

Coaches to allow players to come in whilst 'sleeping' then chase all players out of the circle

Coaches to pretend not to notice players dribbling through the circle & admit defeat at the end that the farmhouse will be dirty

Players will find funny but coach needs to be be watching players ball control

Coaching points -

Keeping the ball close to not clash into other players

Touch out of feet when getting chased by the farmers

Small turns when attempting to go back through the farmhouse

Players to be ready for games after. Coach to bring players into ask questions where they have been & what football skills they have learnt on the way.

*Coach needs to be active, animated & fun in this session or it wont go as coach planned.
