Intense sessionn

Method: Session 1

Finding rythme amongst the team and getting loads of touches along with introducing sequences to find good flow.

Coaching Points: Finding different plays and getting a feel for the ball and pitch. Idea is to get comfortable on the ball and know what you are doing before you receive it. Switching on the players getting them back into the flow of things.

15 minute warm up introducing a passing drill with loads of touches, first pass is straight, take a touch and turn and play diag and do the same on the way back.

Then adding in a bounce pass off the first cone, adding in a bounce pass on each cone and a set and finally a bounce pass verticle, run around the back of the player of the ball and play the diag cross. do each of these for 3 minutes each.

Going into a 7 v 7 for 10 minutes, stopping the play encouraging players to play through balls and introudcing link up play and overlaps.

Move into 11 v 11 for 10 minutes a half again stopping the play and coaching full backs to overlap. finding the strikers feet and getting a platform etc.

Finishing this intense session with 8 box to box runs 15 seconds on 15 seconds off so should be around 70%

Heavy Gym

Method: Gym Session

Coaching Points:

Focusing on power and strength doing football movements.

Split squats with 5 kg weigh and knee drive. 8 each side 3 sets

box jumps body weight 10x3

Broad jumps 5x3

Pull ups with 3 seconds hold 8x3

Deadlift (personalised weight) 8x3

glute bridges 10x3

This is going to get peoples heart rate up during the movements but I would encourage rest periods of 90 seconds to 120 seconds to ensure you can perform each exercise to your max.

Tactical session high intensity

Method:Playing out from the back and getting on the front foot right away.

15 minute warm up. Into positional play where we move the ball around in our shape non opposed.

From this we add in the opposing team and starting from our keeper play out from the back.

do this for 25 mins.

Having your top 4 players on the opposing team.

having 1 server and 8 v 8 on the pitch with the fixed goal starting with the ball after a score or sideline.

Developing this into a transition from attack to defend where at times the serves (number1) plays the ball in and the opposing team tries to work a score.

Recovery

Method: quick transitions and working the body to the max before a deload day.

Coaching Points:

15 minute warm up. moving into two groups where strikers work on their finishing and defenders work on defending corners and keeping a good high line.

Strikers will get 4 shots each, 2 into the small goals, left foot and right foot, and ball low across the front of the box and the a longer cross from the other side. They will do this for 12 minutes and swap with the defenders who will use it to direct balls into the small goals, calculating their pass completion.

Ffrom here we go into 1v1,2v1,3v2 and 4v3 this will be at a high intensity for 7 minutes and there will be 3 blocks. tHis means everyone is defending and attacking against different numbers and after a shot players need to react to the next ball if already involved or communicate with their team whoever is getting involved.

Finishing with a large 9v9 game.
