Tell Kit, Sportplan's coaching assistant, which sessions you find hardest to plan, and we'll build the AI planner around it.
Every drill in the planner comes from Sportplan's library of 500+ football drills, with diagrams and video.
Pick one theme, warm up with the ball, build from a simple practice to an opposed one, and finish with a game that rewards the theme. Keep players moving, with lots of touches and short explanations.
Use games more than drills, keep queues short with small groups and plenty of balls, and praise effort. Finish every session with a match, because it's what children come for.
A game with an extra rule that makes the session's theme happen more often: two touches only, a goal only counts after five passes, or a target zone to play into. It keeps the realism of a game while focusing on one skill.
A ready-made layout for a session: theme, age group, equipment and a timed list of practices with diagrams and coaching points. The Sportplan planner has templates you fill in with drills from the library.
