Hey coach!
Is this you?
"I have one child on my U6 team who regularly
misbehaves even with his parents around...
I had a couple of heart to hearts with him,
but that didn't seem to help much.
Then I started giving footy4kids
patches... He earned one for bravery at the last game for getting
up so quickly after falls. I had told him that he would get something for
that. He was so excited. After I gave the patches out..I told him about a
special patch he could earn for listening and following directions. We
worked on a couple more practice games, he listened, did what he was told
and said: "I've followed directions!" I gave him a gold star.
It is amazing what a little thing like a patch can do." Lee

This
football (soccer) drill is designed to improve the player’s heading
ability.
Players are divided equally into two groups.
One group is
positioned behind the goal to recover missed headers. The second group
are split equally and positioned at two cones placed at the edge of
the penalty area. Two servers, positioned each side of the goal, serve
the ball in the air and between the two cones placed approximately 12
yards from the goal line.
Players recovering the balls should ensure there is a ready supply of
ball for the servers.
The players heading receive a throw from the server diagonally
opposite. The ball must be struck after it passes through the cones.
Any ball struck before passing through the cones does not count. The
group works as a team to see how many goals they can score in a
three-minute period.
Coaching points: The emphasis should be placed on accuracy and
power. Players should time their runs so that they do not have to
break stride when heading the ball. |
