Excellent drills, very detailed videos. Useful site for my U15 boys team.
Can anyone suggest any drills which would aid juniors with the new aspects of the Self-Pass rule coming into play?
Can someone help with a clarification on the difference between a skill and a technique
Hi. I have a group of juniors between 7 and 12 years. How can I teach them the art of spreading the ball wide to the wings? They keep sending it back into the bunched up mess of sticks and feet!
Does anyone know any good team-bonding games? I have a small team, of Under 12 Juniors, both boys and girls, with an extremely diverse range of personalities. I'm struggling to get them to co-operate, and I want them to get to know each other and build friendships between each other, in the hopes that they'll stop arguing so much, and perhaps pay a bit more attention to me when I try to explain drills. It has to be relatively simple, and fun.
I have a u/13 hockey team. Is there another way to have fair traiils with e.g. drills and a point system ather than just playing a game?
(Question submitted by email) I'll be coaching a new team over the next few months. What skills should I use to take them to the next level? Any suggestions?

Anybody got any improving sharpness drills for field hockey players
I coach aged 7 children and I don't know how to teach them how to play a proper hockey match without all of them going for the ball and not staying in their positions. Do I put lines where they are not allowed to pass? or what?
I just became the head coach of a middle school field hockey team and would like some pointers on how to coach. I have experience with goal keeping and defensive drills, I was a keeper, so I would like to learn more about offense as well. Any help is appreciated!!
Looking into creating a 7 a side junior competition for a Junior mixed gender out door season. Any comments
I'm in the U.S., coaching a team of 11-12 year olds, with 1-2 years of experience. Defending the circle, when the ball is loose, my players are not getting control of the ball to hit out of the circle. It's congested with opponent and my team's players. If my players get control, they lose it quickly. If the opponent has control, my players aren't very good at taking the ball or stopping the opponent from taking a shot. Luckily we have a good goalie but she can only do so much. (Full disclosure: I didn't play FH but have a decent understanding of the game. No one else in my community would step up to coach so it's fallen to me.)
how can I make practises such as the indian dribble and running with the ball using the correct grip more entertaining for junior players?

Wow what a great website, I have found sportplan an important tool for me when planning my netball sessions with my netball team. There are alot of very helpful tips/ideas/skills that I can learn and teach to my team. 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.
