Progressions

1) Make all 3 stations the same now & add freestyle zone after completing skills- players have 10 seconds do practice what they like i.e. these skills, knew skills, kick ups etc. before returning to the beginning.

2) After 2 mins, replace the freestyle zone with goals, so players can recap on last week's finishing (shooting) & replace orange cone with Defender (make Attackers V Defenders).
