Football/Soccer Session (Beginner): RELAY WARM UPS
Description
This exercise can work great in conjunction with a dynamic because the players will already be in lines. It's also good to have the players warm-up up a bit before going full speed.

SET UP:
* First set up cones for players to dribble around. An ideal distance is approximately 10m in total, however, this may vary depending on the age of the players. Once the grid is set up, separate players into even teams. If some teams have an extra player the teams with fewer players will have to assign someone to perform two legs of the relay, this way all teams perform the same number of relay legs. Each relay team needs one ball
INSTRUCTIONS: Relay rules and concepts will be at the coaches discretion. (Example #1) Having players use their right foot only to dribble and weave through the cones until they reach the end, and then have them finish off with a pass to the next player in line.
VARIATIONS: Relay grids can be set up in many different formats and they can be incorporated into dynamic warm ups without using a ball to start. Using different colored cones can help identify targets, and objectives.
