@coachdavefran @cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @coach_kevin_m @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet We didn't see them, but Gambino all-stars were quality. We didn't do the theme park unfortunately, our lot preferred shopping at the heden centre in their down time.

@CoachRobPorter @cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @coach_kevin_m @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet Tremendous Rob - Did you get to see Right to Dream play? 8000 watching them last time I was there - Did you take the boys to theme park?! 😂 Glad you had a good time - an experience I think every youth coach should have

What an enjoyable and full on week I've just had in Sweden at the Gothia cup! Getting a U15s team up, fed, on 2 or 3 trams or buses to games, doing activities, all on top of coaching. This penalty shootout was one of many highlights from the week🔥

@MrALott @cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @coach_kevin_m @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet I was over there working for a company so I'm not sure on cost unfortunately.

@CoachRobPorter @cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @coach_kevin_m @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet What sort of price per person for this experience Rob? If a team was to do it

@coach_kevin_m @cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet It's an experience that will live long in the memory.

@CoachRobPorter @cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet Brilliant, Rob. What an experience for you and the players.

@coach_kevin_m @cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet Heden was the main area for the cup, although there were loads of other pitches used all over Gothenburg.

@CoachRobPorter @cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet Were the Heden (sp?) pitches used, Rob? I haven't been to the Gothia Cup, but I have spent loads of time in Gothenburg and Boras, and was shocked they have all these free pitches next to the Gamla Ullevi

@cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @coach_kevin_m @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet The week was only a success because of @CoachingAt, as she was great with the group, as well as helping me immensely. I can imagine that she will want a long extended break away from me after this week!

@cutinside @ben_andreos @BreakthruSoccer @JB_SoccerCoach @coach_kevin_m @CoachingAt @SessionShareNet I would say that it's not for the faint hearted! We were really lucky that we had a fantastic group of players who were kind, honest, respectful, and fun. Even with a great group, it's a lot of hours and responsibility as you've got them for a week, not just a session and game!

Technique Wins Matches—Build It Early! 🚀 I’ve been saying this Just look at the World Cup right now: 🇪🇸 Spanish players are lighting up the tournament with pure technical brilliance. Their pin-point passing, silky first-touch receiving, and total control of possession are no accidents—it’s the result of mastering the fundamentals from day one. It’s the same across every sport: ⛳ Golf: A flawless swing is built on grip, stance, and rhythm—get the foundation right, and power flows naturally. 🎾 Tennis: A solid backhand relies on footwork, body positioning, and timing—messy basics lead to errors under pressure. Why the foundation phase is non-negotiable: ✅ Locks in muscle memory that lasts a lifetime ✅ Eliminates bad habits that are nearly impossible to fix later ✅ Builds confidence to keep the ball, make plays, and perform under pressure—just like Spain Don’t wait to "sort it out later." Great technicians aren’t born—they’re made when it matters most. Give your players the technical base to dominate, enjoy the game, and play like pros! 💪 #Coaching #Technique #Learning #Academy #Development

My @SundayShare10 : 🔥HIGH-INTENSITY PRE-SEASON ATTACKING SESSION. Looking to build a relentless, forward-thinking threat? Try this fast-paced 6v6 (+6) transition game designed to push quick decision-making under pressure. 📋 THE SETUP ✔️Format: 6 Yellow vs 6 Red + 2 GKs ✔️Neutrals: 6 Green players (Strict 2-touch limit; cannot shoot) ✔️Positioning: 4 Greens out in the corners, 2 Greens running the middle 🎯 THE RULES & SCORING ⏱️ 3-Minute Games: Play high-intensity 3-minute blocks, then rotate squads. Keep score! ⚽ 3 Points: For a regular goal. 🎯 1 Point: For any shot on target (rewards positive intent). ➕ Bonus Point: Score directly from a neutral player's assist! ✅Coaching Points: ✅Speed of Play: Demand quick, vertical ball movement. The two-touch limit on the neutrals forces the attacking team to support early and look forward immediately. ✅Exploit the Overload: Encourage your players to recognize where the extra green jersey is and use them to isolate defenders and create 2v1s. ✅Transition Mentality: The moment possession is won, the focus must instantly shift to a positive, forward-thinking threat before the defense can set up. 💥 The Goal: Force players to use the overload, transition vertically, and punish the opposition. Perfect for physical and tactical sharpness. How would you tweak this for your squad? 👇 #SoccerCoaching #TrainingDrills #PreSeason #Tactics #FootballCoach @power_ray @SessionShareNet @HubFcc @AFCAjax @CoachUdofia @CoachRobPorter @Coach_Osku @205_Academy @BreakthruSoccer @TheS_Resource @ExchangeCoach @JB_SoccerCoach @coach_kevin_m @PeterPrickett @CoachingFamily @JustcoachMD

My @SundayShare10 this week is a session I did ⚽ Great session out on the pitch with these two academy talents yesterday! 🙌 We worked on receiving skills—not just controlling the ball, but instantly locking onto what comes next. Whether it’s a sharp pass, a confident dribble, or a quick shot, every touch sets up the next move. Big focus on opening the hips: this lets you see both the ball at your feet and your destination upfield, keeping vision wide and decisions sharp. Such a brilliant work rate from these two—bright futures ahead! 💪 #Coaching #Development #Academy #Learning #Receiving

Planning your pre-season? Here's a simple 6-week framework you can copy. The goal isn't to invent new drills every session. It's to help players improve every week. 🧵 #SundayShare

Sometimes, as coaches, we forget that the most valuable concepts to reinforce are the ones we take for granted. Our fundamentals might be what another coach is only beginning to learn. So here are some practical reminders for grassroots coaches: Start with play. Have a game ready when the players arrive. It gives the session immediate energy and avoids the inevitable question: “Will we have a match?” Give every player a ball where possible—or at least one between two—and regularly include 1v1s, 2v1s and 1v2s. Coach principles rather than prescribing every tactical answer. Ask questions, listen to what the players think and let them test their ideas. Football rarely has only one solution. Design practices that create action. Small games give players more opportunities to experience the topic under pressure. Use overloads when they need to experience success, then even the numbers to increase the difficulty. When defenders win possession, give them somewhere to attack so transition becomes a natural part of the practice. Make your setup versatile. One pitch, a halfway line and a few mini-goals can create several different formats without constantly stopping to rebuild the session. You can also run two games side by side—you don’t need to observe every action for players to learn. Most importantly, keep them playing. The more they play, the happier they are likely to be. The happier they are, the longer they may stay in the sport. If we can combine that enjoyment with purposeful practice, even better. #SundayShare @SundayShare10 @CarlWild75 @gary_piggot @CoachRobPorter
