A simple plan with big ambitions! Improve your players' confidence and get them moving the ball in style, by receiving and passing the ball positively. Communication is also key, and you need to increase this if you want your team keeping possession well. Using areas on the pitch as zones for the drills, you can spend less time setting up cones and more time actually coaching!
What's in the session?
To get your players moving the ball quickly (ideally off two touches) and putting a name on it, this session maintains a high tempo through a variety of possession based exercises. Use simple but effective passing, by adding quality and accuracy so your pass will get to its target.
By keeping the movement realistic and game related this session keeps your players motivated, playing clever 1-2s and communicating. Try it with your team tonight!

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
