Our under 12's have made the jump from 9 a side to 11 a side. We have entered a big city league were results are hard to come by. We play a super 1st half and lose it massively 2nd half, through heads down & fitness. Any suggestions on confidence boosting & training drills to help steady a ship. We are playing a 4 - 2 -3 - 1 formation.Yes we are getting a bit of negativity from the parents to, which does not help. Thank you in advance.
This is my first season coaching u12's - I have a lot of experience with coaching younger children in which I concentrated on skills, ball work etc (90%). Just wondering does anyone have any thoughts or ideas on how much fitness work is req'd for 11 and 12 year olds.

Hi I'm beginning Pre-season training with my squad and am wondering what is the best sequence to do when using fitness/agility /SAQ ie.; heavy work first or last and light work when in my session which will last 45 mins? Thanks peter ps this will be followed by another 45 mins of drills and warm down small game
Hi, I coach u13 team and most of them really have poor shoot power. I tried to show them proper way to shoot the ball, we worked on approaching the ball with small steps, and now after few months their shoot technique is mostly satisfying, but they simply lack power. There are 3 or 4 players who can shoot the ball well, but others can't shoot on goal from 15 or 20 metres out which is really worrying because in other teams we play against almost all players can shoot the ball much further than my players. I think 13 years old is too early to start with any serious strength trainings. Any ideas?
Hello All,I will be coaching my daughter's U16 Div 2 team this year, I just wanted to ask fellow coaches and mangers what to expect. I'm not new to the game, in fact I currently play in the state league myself, but there is a difference between playing the game and actually managing the team. I guess my questions lie around team management techniques and what should I look out for or what should I be aware of? The season starts in a month and training commences next week, so what is the best way to get the kids in shape fast? Thank you.
how can I plan the session of my team
How do I improve the fitness levels of my under 9s team. Asked using Sportplan Mobile App
As a result we are losing games die to half of them being unfit. I only have 12 players sometimes 11, so they know I don't have the option of dropping them.Leading up to these last 6 games do people think I should focus on cardiovascular training rather than ball work?

What does your average training session look like.. in terms of time spent 1) warming up/fitness 2) drills to aid technique or hands-on coaching for specific areas you want to improve and 3) SSGs? I read somewhere to spend roughly equal amounts of time on each..

Hello, my name is Wisdom Kimbangi and I am a goalkeeper. Until next year summer, I have a lot of preparation to do because I have some football next year summer. I was just wondering if you could help me.Could anyone give me the best goalkeeper drills to work on throughout the year so that I can improve?Could I also have some fitness and muscle exercises that I could do without the use of the gym?And is it possible if I could have a diet plan that goalkeepers should follow and/or a diet plan that can help reduce my weight?Many thanks, will be waiting for your reply!From Wisdom,Goalkeepr
