Restart Week 8
This week we will focus on restarts Goal kicks explain the rules and how this work
Principle of play Week 8 -
Support – Links to movement but more specifically focuses on how you will support the player on the ball. Support can be provided behind, ahead and beside the player on the ball. In order to provide support effectively, players should look to create space from their movement and look to provide angles and distance to be able to receive the ball.
Movement – Is how players move off the ball to create space for their team mates or for themselves. Players may look to move between lines to receive the ball or make runs in behind and other examples may be players making a double movement to create space for themselves to receive or even moving away from the ball to create space for others to exploit
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
