Teaching 12-13yr olds the basic skills needed to play a match

There are a number of pupils in my class that don't know the basic skills needed to play football, they lack the skills needed and the discipline. Because of that I'm asking if any of you have some ideas what to do? Ideally I need ideas on what to do to help get my class into shape and to start learning the basics.

Problems with inserting sketches to plans - Resolved

Is anyone else having difficulties adding their own sketches to plans. I can get as far as "choose a sketch" and then it jumps back to the plan. the pre-fab'd sportsplan ones are fine, but I can't add my own! I emailed the technical support team 2 days ago but have yet to have received a reply.If anyone can help, it would be a huge help!Rich.

Technical drills for 4-6 year-olds?

I am doing a football leaders award and was looking for ideas for a technical drill involving dribbling, running with the ball and defending. I am going to be coaching 4/5/6 year olds so any ideas on that would be great.

skill building drills for co-ed outdoor team

I am co-coaching a high school co-ed homeschool group(ages 13-17) There has been very little actual coaching before I volunteered to coach. skill levels are all over the place. I am looking for team drills that involve as many players as possible that will build basic skills and start teaching each player how the game should look when being played during an actual game. there are 24-30 kids at practices. help, please.

Assessments and measurements

Hi, I am looking for assessments drills\tasks that will allow me to measure player outcomes......a measuring mechanism will also be idealTypically if you want to measure basic technical then you would measure juggling as an example and count the number over a limited duration. but when you start to go into movement etc then it get a bit complicated cause measuring a players ability to receive the ball in his run or on a turn.....how do you measure that?

Need tips on how best to develop technical abilities quickly

I have little experience as a coach but have been tasked with coaching a u14/15 team with barely any footballing experience. I know the basics of a session from my years of playing but could use some tips on what elements I can focus on to help develop my players' technical abilities as quickly as possible.

Passing

Hi, I'm a 16 year old hoping to get into coaching in the future, I currently coach an u8s grassroots team, I'd like to know how I could stop all of them running after the ball and teach them to stay in their positions, while also passing the ball across and making more room and options. Am I asking too much from 8 year olds?

What should we do to beat bigg...

We have been promoted to a higher league this of which I think the kids thoroughly deserve. I've one concern though, at this age you find a number of boys that have experienced growth spurts and are usually disproportionally bigger (not technically better). I find with these games my boys get pushed off the ball and struggle to cope with the strength of these boys. How does one set up a team against a squad that's not better but stronger and bigger.

I have been using Sportplan now for 3 years and can honestly say that I have never repeated the same session twice. My girls are always focused and are improving every year. Thanks Sportplan.

Debbie Cross Australia

What a fantastic tool. The Chalkboard and session tools make an unbelievable difference in making training plans in both time and organization. I will be instructing all of my assistant coaches that this tool must be used for all sessions during the season, so that we may build a club coaching resource library.
