Great session, we do one similar with two players in a middle zone whom must be bypassed to score. One player can leave to pressure the team in possession. Switches when the ball goes to the other area.
Hey Ben, just found your channel. Fantastic videos. Can you give some suggestions about warm up games for u11 and u12 teams with 14-16 players? Thanks and keep up the great content
I like this idea, but I have concerns. I just started teaching rondos yesterday. The kids were slow to take on the idea. I felt I spent more time teaching the rondo than the kids spent playing. They’re U10 boys. On game days, I only have 25 mins to get them warmup, and I also want them to practice shots on goal. What’s the best way to teach this so I don’t spend more time teaching the exercise right before a game?
Once the kids have tried the game a couple of weeks in a row it will be more fluent and quicker to get kids moving. You can also explain the game on a tactic board before hand to speed up their understanding.
Another option is to do the game by hand, first with players, throwing and catching the ball, so they understand the patterns and triggers and get to grips with the game quicker . Once they understand the game, you can then put the ball down and play with feet
Hello ! Just a question . In my point of view it's not realistic for the one team to pass to another team. Wouldn't be more realistic if the defeneder reocver the ball and then pass to his teammates? Plus, the targets of the drill remains the same. And we give motivation to the defeneder to win the ball.
The defender is trying to recover the ball and pass to his team mates. The possession team are trying to score a point by playing the ball through the middle but just like a match, when you score you also give possession back to the other team!
Like the idea, but I often have a problem with a kid that will just want to guard the goal (in SSGs with popup goals and no keppers) or in this case the gate. Any ideas how to stop that please?
Tha is Chris, there’s a couple of ways to manage it. I usually put a circles of spot markers around the gate where players aren’t allowed to stand, they can make a recovery into there to make a “goal line clearance” but they aren’t allowed to linger in there. You can also introduce channels in a wide area to maximise width and allocate players to stay in these channels during the game. Another option is to increase the width of the gate to the point where one player defending it wouldn’t be enough of a guard and scoring would still be achievable!
@@CatalanSoccer Thanks for the response. Creating a 'no-man's land' area makes sense. There is a drawback of making a larger gate: that is the passing team don't need to work as hard to complete their task. How does the 'channels' idea work though?
@@CatalanSoccer actually iam beginner I used heavy band for execise but after two days so much pain in knee and back You suggest me which band for good recovery and power also
