Greta drills, I plan to use them for my U11 Boys team. Only change is that I may try to use a few triangles in order to increase touches for the kids. Thanks for sharing this!
11-12 kids with one ball. not ideal. the more advanced variations are not gonna help kids with this low skill level. These are cool, and have a place in teaching touch, some body posture/movement, and passing, but really I wouldn't use as a foundation of training. Boring for the kids. Versions 4 and 5 good for better older kids as warm-up. Rondo's are much better at teaching same skills + a million more, and the kids will enjoy it more.
First drill is one of my favourites for kids and older players and heres why, this can be done both ways and players learn to open theyre bodies up to recieve and the pass, intensity and adding a ball only comes with progression but that is a very good drill, what i would say is half the numbers and set up another exactly the same but brilliant 👏 keep it up love to see it
Some might say it makes kids wait but I have a team of 12-14 typically so 4 in a line is nothing lol they'll be moving just fine. Drill #1 I'm using tonight, thanks!!
Viel zu lange Standzeiten, bis einer Spieler wieder dran kommt. Komisch ist auch, dass der Pass regelmäßig mit dem rechten Fuß ausgeführt wird, obwohl sich die Spielrichtung geändert hat. Es sollte sowohl für die Ballannahme als auch für den folgenden Pass eine Vorgabe gemacht werden, welcher Fuß zu verwenden ist.
Vielen Dank für Ihren Kommentar. In der ersten Variante habe ich den Teil, den wir gemacht haben, links im Video eingefügt, aber ich habe mich dafür entschieden, ihn nicht in die anderen Varianten einzufügen, weil das Video lang sein würde.
Of course, you can set it in a square formation, it will be more useful for your students. You can put the second ball into play, it will be easier compared to the triangle formation.
We did the first three drills for an average of 2-3 minutes. The 4th and 5th drills took a little longer because we stopped the training and explained it. You can adjust the duration of the drill according to your students.
Thanks for your comment. I thought about changing it within the drill but the third man run part and the drill in part 2 were going to get complicated so I decided to continue.
For most of those drills you need to introduce 1 or 2 more balls. First thing I see is 95% of players stood still and the ones near the back having to wait excruciatingly long time to touch the ball. That’s what you expect from a bad PE teacher in 1978
Thanks for your comment. I think you're partly wrong with your comment, because first of all, you can perceive that it is a low-intensity training, and if you observe the age and skill level of the players, the extra ball will complicate the training. Extra balls can be added for older age groups, I have an existing video about it that I can share with you. I am inspired by some coaches from 1978, their work and achievements show me that I am on the right track.
@@ADFootballTrainingVideos Its not really about being wrong/right, just sharing my professional coaching exp. If it's cold, you have a few players that are easily bored or lose concentration easily these kind of drills have too many standing still. It applies to all sports training at that age. I think some of your drills would be well placed after a very high level cardio drill where it's used as a break in intense physical activity and focus on the concentration and technique. Otherwise I just see players starting to talk at the back of line, get bored or get cold.
@@Timbelialclarke couldn't disagree more. Responsibility of a coach at any level but more so at youth level is to provide fun and activity (above all). From my experience it's better to tire kids out, get the energy out, then move on to more technical coaching. Standing in line reminds me of under qualified teachers at schools who take on PE sessions. I recall a scene in a school where I witnessed a class 30 kids line up to hit the ball just 3/4 time in the course of a lesson. Also if you have to spend time correcting behavior in the line you also now have everyone standing still. You may have other ways of doing things but for me lines are not useful esp in modern day football coaching and when it is cold
ummm...shouldn't they learn how to receive a ball before you train them to pass though? if they screw that up (which they are in this video), they won't have it under control to pass when there are other people trying to get the ball from them.
Thanks for your comment. We have done the ball receiving and passing training separately before, of course, I don't think it is at a sufficient level. In this study, we have done the ball receiving and passing subject as a whole and diversified it by adding additional sections.
@@ADFootballTrainingVideos Ya...they are not completely ready for this drill is all I am saying. If they learn to point their toe up and let the ball come under it so they can wedge it in and then control it, they will be at a better level than when letting the ball bounce off the side of their foot out of control. If you correct that ball receiving problem, they will have a lot greater success even without passing drills. This video just sort of models bad American behavior on the soccer field that gets emulated over and over and over by coaches who don't know what they are doing. What if it provided a better model of fundamentals? Maybe the quality of American play would improve.
@@VioletDeliriums heyo, but you teach guitar, not football. a ball shouldnt be wedged under a kids feet, it should be received with the intention to play it forward. yes it bounces off now, but they are learning to control it in a way that benefits them.
@@-o-8862 got it...i am a one dimensional being to you and only the thing you see on RU-vid. that's a reasonable assumption on your part. Have you mastered "object permanence" yet?..by "wedged" i do not mean permanently. I mean you catch the ball by pointing your toe up and the ball comes under it. then you move the ball. ..since we are in the spirit of idiotically nitpicking brief RU-vid comments, you do not always play a ball forward. sometimes there is no space there, so you may push it to another player who is not in front of you in order to avoid getting trapped or losing the ball, and finding a better doorway to go through.
It all depends on who you are working with. I do really like Variation 5! At any age, I would want more triangles to start, with only 4 players per triangle. Then I would also encourage this age to move away from the ball first, scan, then show to the ball. Encourage them to talk and use hand signals, and use proper foot to receive and pass. These small habits/details are best formed young.
Great 1st drill! I’ve used many times before with different variations. If I could I would shorten the lines up to get more touches on the ball but great job.
Can I ask what you mean by shorten the lines to get more touches ? Do you mean so the ball comes round so much more often ? I’d be careful because you want to replicate in-game scenarios so small triangles are great aswell but so are larger ones dependant on how big a pitch is etc… For me the key points here is the players taking the touch and passes the man. I think an encouragement would be great to take the touch back in the way the ball game and laying it off with the opposite foot. Take with right forward then play pass with left.
By shortening the lines I just meant the amount of players within each line for more reps. Also, I agree with you regarding the key points and replicating game scenarios. Once again great activity and video!@@TheJuanKerr
@@FormationFootball yeah I get you, That’s what I don’t with my session I used 4 players per triangle. If you can’t shorten the lines another recommendation is making the triangle slightly bigger and then adding in a second ball.
