SAQ & Foundation Warm Up Part 1 & 2 (15 mins)

Organization:

20x15 field

every player with a ball

4 gate as shown above

Instructions

SAQ Warm up part 1

-the players start at the red cones when coach calls the color sequence the players must go to the color cone and back to red before entering the ladders.

-when they set off they must try to cover the space between the cones with as little steps as possible,reinforce the knee over the toe to create a spring motion while going from cone to cone

- while this is going on there will be a player from each group performing a ball mastery move on the spot waiting for the player to finish the ladders

-after the player finishes the ladder they will work on their defencive approach to the player on the ball reinforcing defencive sessions from previous weeks.

-once they reach the ball they will start ball mastery and the players who started on the ball will rotate to the back of the line.

- coach will change color sequence and ball mastery moves after everybody has one repetition

- do three rotations for each player

Foundations part 2 individual possession player attributes

players dribble the ball around the inside of the grid and covering each foundation for dribbling "Painting the Picture" of some of the worlds best players characteristics:

* MESSI/LLOYD: Head up looking to get into the gaps using small, quick touches with the Pinky Toe (outside of the foot).

* POGBA/HORAN: Head up to recognize when there's no gaps/space, then change of direction (12 o'clock to 6 o'clock), ball comes out of your feet, and then head and eyes up getting into the new space.

* RONALDO/MORGAN: Head up to see when there's a lot of space in front of you, then big touch to accelerate and get your head/eyes up and attack the space.

*INIESTA/PUGH : Head up to recognise small tight spaces ,using the inside/outside surfaces of the foot to unbalance defenders to make the space big enough to penetrate

.NEYMAR/HEATH using multiple surfaces to manipulate the ball unbalance defenders using a moves to create space for end product.
