Description

Description

In this session we will look to teach the players how to be purposeful in possession, we want to show the players that the purpose of possession is to penetrate not just to keep the ball.

We will also be incorporating GK's into our sessions from start to finish this will be an effective tool in order to get the most out of your keepers.It is up to you as the coach to be creative and set aside separate learning outcomes for the keepers.

Contained in the session content are many activities to choose from it is you must not try to deliver all activities, you as the coach to choose the right ones for the groups you are coaching each day on the program based on ability levels

Warm-Up- What Surface to use introduce this in the warm-up?

Main theme-Implementing technique with stages of pressure

Conditioned game- what game to pick based on the end product & learning outcomes my group can achieve

End game- Identify a moment to teach the restart & bring out the principle of play

Coaching In the Game (make two stoppages during the end game to reinforce the learning outcomes below)

Restart Week 2

This week we will focus on throw-ins and how we want to receive the ball with multiple surfaces

Principle of play Week 2

(Support and penetration) The team in possession should use the height and width of the field. Players may rotate positions whilst creating diagonal passing options to stretch the opposition.

MVP points System

The player MVP system is a staple of the program and one we use to set competition from the start of the session to the finish between each individual

The way the system works every player has 5 MVP points to start, Players can win more points by applying themselves to each activity with full commitment trying their hardest to progress, and being awarded points by the coach

Players can also win points during each activity by scoring the most points for that activity and for that they will pick up 2 MVP points from the coach.

We also use the point system to reinforce good standards like staying in bounds, not bumping into other players, and good behavior. the player can lose their points when these standards are not met. Try to use it as a motivator, not a punishment.

Once the players get used to this system they will become more responsible for their own development
