@AdvFtbAcad Genuine question… what do you think it’s effective in? What’s it effective for?

This is an effective passing drill. Do you know why? Players aren't standing around, bored or waiting on the next pass. Passing drills must be engaging, otherwise they are pointless.

@TheS_Resource @Baswaldo_L This individual is a good coach by winning all the time…! It has to change but it’s actually getting worse with trials now held for ‘elite’ u6s in grassroots settings.

@TheS_Resource @Baswaldo_L ‘Are football people’ who played the game hundreds of years ago! Their own ego is then fuelled by winning games, by having the best players, and not actually doing any meaningful coaching.., good players flock to the team and the cycle continues, further fueling the idea that…

The eReds won’t like it but given the injuries and absences, that was tactically spot on from Liverpool.

@MyFootballCoach Absolutely, I do believe there’s a balance… coaching U8s where the philosophy is ‘stay on the ball’ has led to them just dribbling for over a year, which is fantastic.. we now want to bring in ‘when can a teammate help you’ which leads to 2v1s. I don’t think it’s an either/or.

@thomasfrances30 Agreed, that’s why I would say to constrain the players you make it a one V one practice so they don’t have the pass and they’re forced to develop the body mechanics and the movements and the skill to solve this problem

Someone suggested to me 2v1s are better than 1v1s because there are “more decisions.” I disagree. 2v1s often make the game easier — the spare player becomes the solution. 1v1s force real decision-making: Can you beat, protect, manipulate, or escape pressure yourself? Football already rewards the easy pass. We need to develop players who can break lines — not wait for help.

As a first principle, can you do it in a game? Thats what more people should be thinking when there are 20 kids standing in a line waiting to have a go.

#sundayshare @SundayShare10 Language: We’ve had a 4 month experiment to see how few words we can use on a match day. It’s taken some work, but we’ve landed on 3 words for players to be: Ready, Early, Quick. And we’ve one ongoing prompt: What can you see?

@thomasfrances30 @SundayShare10 U10s, mixed ability. Players respond well - we notice they learn parrot fashion very easily, it’s meaning that needs time! Parents get a pre-match plan (example attached) based on training sent to them on the Thursday evening before each match.

What a learning opportunity! Listening to @sergiomullor82 and @england_futsal deliver an amazing webinar on verticality and how to apply it to our players! Loads of learning and transferable messages to help the players I coach in FUTSAL.
