Excellent drills, very detailed videos. Useful site for my U15 boys team.
Can someone suggest a really good warm-up drill or exercise to get players thinking/concentrating/making decisions? I.e. something prior to a match, after having done a physical warm-up, dynamic stretches, any SAQ and technical stuff
The teams currently in our league all seem to have vastly different playing styles. It's obviously not possible to fully coach strategies for each of these teams, but i was wondering if people had any tips about how you can tweak your team tactics without moving too far away from the default mentality e.g playing against a team with a particularly strong centre half?
I demand a resolution for the issue I faced while purchasing a three-month access from your site. Despite my payment going through, your site declined my card and double charged me, leaving me with no access. This is unacceptable and needs to be rectified immediately.
Hi teamTwo payments have been taken out of my Credit Card in 2 days can you please advise and look forward to the refund?Cheers Sam ...link in profile...
Hi can you help me setting a defence against a team playing 2 centre halves. My team plays conventional style 5321 . Thanks
If there are two defenders trying to tackle one player. Do you pull up for two on one or do all three sticks need to be making contact with the ball?
in more ways than one

I love using Sportplan. It's been a great help for co-ordinating hockey practice and being able to help tweak skills and getting the most out of my players!

Thank you sportplan I hope to continue to use your helpful tips and to learn more about improving my teams netball skills. Thanks again....keep it up....
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.
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.
I can't get enough of the Sportplan, It has given me back the enthusiasm i was starting to lose. My girls are so keen and are ready at 14 to take the next up in their game. Sportplan will help no end.
