HELP! When i have the ball, am moving quicly and a defender comes, i cant' get past them, and i can't recover fast enough

Whenever i have the ball, and i'm moving up the field, everytime a defender comes and tries to take the ball, they always succed. This is a big problem of mine, i almost always lose the ball to a defender when i'm moving, and i usually can't recover (not that i literallyy CAN'T, the defender is just to far past me to be able for me to get the ball back)and get back the ball, and i feel really dumb because i'm a very talented player, but i'm alwayse afraid to take the ball mainly just because when i move fast and a defender comes, i try to lift the ball and it just doesn't work, and i normally can't pull the ball far enough either cause the grass is thik. PLEASSEEE help me adn give me some advice on recovering and better techniques on how to get by a defender while moving very quickly.

Progress chart for 5 - 10 year olds

Would like to give certificates to young players when they achieve certain standard and can complete a progressive number of drills and skills to an agreed standard. Looking for ideas on how to set this up and what to include eg can dribble for 50m without loosing ball, can push ball correctly, can hit ball more than 10m, can aim ball through goals 5m apart or something along that line for 5year olds to 10 years probably

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.
