Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): U11/12 Week 4 (Start Time: 2013-09-25 17:30:00)

Receive and around (15 mins)

Set up a gate with different coloured cones (red and yellow) and that can later identify left and right.

The gap between them should be about two or three yards The player at the front of the blue line passes the ball to the player at the front of the orange line.

To begin with the have the players go to one side (yellow) for a couple of minutes, then have them take the ball to the other side (red). Once the players have the idea of the game to make it more competitive the coach calls out a colour as the ball is moving thru the gate and the player has to react the coaches call.

If you find your players really enjoying this game you could try doing opposite colours.

As a warm up exersize we could have our players doing different dynamic stretches after their pass as they make the run the middle.

The Game: Same as initial exercise, but now if you play to the ball a teammate on the outside, they join the game and you fill the gate they vacated. Points are still scored by transferring the ball from one gate to the other.
