This session helps players to:
work on handling, footwork, positioning
establish a variety of effective saving techniques
practise distribution.
If your players master these activities – or find them too hard – try adding a progression. You could even set individual challenges for players who are forging ahead.
But remember, learning takes time. So don’t alter your practice too quickly – or too much. Try using the STEP framework (Youth Sports Trust, 2002). This helps keep things fun, engaging and appropriate.
If you use this session with your team, let us know how you get on by posting in the England Football Community.
