This week we're working each and every player in your team by focusing on:
Acceleration, Sidestepping and Shifting of body weight (and the ball) to favour the position you are in
Why are we working on these skills?
The purpose of this session is to improve your player's ability to draw their opposition off their base, to get defenders off balance and moving them from side to side so that your player can manipulate the attacking zone.
