Warm up.
This drill will increase the heart rate and warm up the key muscles to go straight into the drill.
First, keepers will be in the square jogging around, the coach which is positioned out of the square will call the following numbers which will prompt a reaction:
1. Two feet jump over the ball, and jump back over the same way.
2. Low right Dive.
3. Low left Dive.
4. Low right and left (ensure the keepers find two balls close)
5. Close down the further balls and hold position (sprint).

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
