How can i get my under8s to keep there shape and stay in there possitions.anyone know any training drills which might help.
Hi Jason,
You can make use of marked-out zones while playing games. Enforce the rule that the players cannot leave their zones. Players can move within a zone but cannot leave it.
Going ahead, you can let your attackers have the freedom to play without zones if the use of zones restricts their attacking freedom. But for the defenders/players you expect to contribute in the defensive phase, the zones are a good idea to force them to hold their position.
Regards,
Gagan.
