Is there a way to change settings or somewhere to search for age appropriate drills etc? I am coaching an U9 team so a lot of drills appear too complex for them.Thanks in advance

i dont believe there is, but you can modify a lot of these drills to relate to your age group. you just have to take a moment and remember that most 9yr olds have a problem with a lot of complex moves (or really any movement lol), so you could probably reduce the size of the drill, (less running), instead of running between points, have a person at each point and just pass, slow the drill down to almost walking pace, until they understand it better, or break the drill into smaller sections and then just add in the next part when they are ready. if you are having any issues, let me know what drills you wish to modify and i will try and give you ideas on modification for them. good luck.
