  • Warm up exercise in relay form

    • Divide the players into groups of 2 or 3 players and place them on the left side of the field.
    • Give each player a tennis ball.
    • At the start sign, the 1st player of each group starts running to the other, right, side with a ball.
    • Once there, they put the ball outside the line and run back as fast as they can so that player 2 of their group can start running with his/her ball.
    • When all the balls are on the right side and the last player has returned to his/her group, it is over.
    • The first one back to his/her group wins.
  • Put the players in a row next to each other.
    About 1 meter in front of them on the ground is a tennis ball.

    • Have them put their feet slightly apart.
    • Quickly run -dribble- in place.
    At the trainer's instruction they do while dribbling:
    • Hands on knees.
    • Hands on toes.
    • Hands on shoulders.
    • Hands forward.
    • Hands in the air.
    • When the trainer calls Ball!, they grab the ball as fast as they can.

    • Repeat and throw the commands interchangeably for variety.
  • Exercise revolves around keeping pace with the ball. Running through without the ball.
    • Running through alphabetically (ABCDE).
    • Exercise:
    • A to E
    • E drops to B (and E runs through outside)
    • B to C
    • C to D
    • D in the run at E
    • E finishes in (mini) goalmouth.
    Both sides same exercise.

    drawing Baltempo
  • Conditional finishing in different match situations
    Finishing form focused on finishing on goal.
    The aim is to finish at a high tempo, while also addressing the conditional aspect.

    Exercise:
    • A dribbles to edge of 16 meters.
    • A finishes.
    • A sprints back to middle pylon and asks ball to B.
    • B gives ball to A
    • A rebounds to B.
    • B works off.
    • A sprints to 3rd pylon and asks ball to C.
    • C rebounds ball to A.
    • A gives deep ball to C.
    • C sprints to side.
    • C passes ball across the ground.
    • A-B switch positions.
    • A-B work off.
    Coaching:
    • Starting on time.
    • Play the ball hard to the team-mate.
    • Move on immediately.
    drawing Finishing form
    • Exercise A: Overpass ball through gate right and left legged.
      Emphasis on stance leg dropping slightly through knee and kick leg hitting ball in the middle.
      Keep body straight, do not hang.
    • Exercise B: instep kick.
    • Exercise C: dribble around the pawn, first inside foot right and left, then try outside foot.
      Speed is not necessary, prefer to hit the ball every step.
    • Players A and B change after 5 minutes, if all 3 have been to B then A & B change to C.
    drawing Technique exercise
    • Short Rondo prior to training to get warm.
    • 2 laps around half court.
    drawing Warm-up routine
    • Goalkeeper in goal. All balls in starting zone.

    • One player has free starting ball which is compulsorily played into Phase 1.
    • After ball lands in Phase 1, starting player joins in box. This becomes 4v4.

    • In the intermediate line is one player that the defending team is not allowed to enter. That is used to move the game from Phase 1 to Phase 2.
    • The player in the intermediate line then joins in Phase 2 for a 3v3.

    • If the defensive side takes the ball away then they set up the counter to the small goal.
    • This remains 3v3 and 4v4, the boxes being the boundaries.
    Does attacking take over the ball from defending then everyone recovers their position and we start again.

    drawing Breaking line in position/party form
