What's in every session

Each session is built in clear stages: a warm-up, technical practice, skill practice, small-sided game and debrief. Where the take-home message matters most, we've added extra coaching points.

Topics include rondos, beat-the-player moves, 1v1 defending, playing out from the back, playing through the thirds, counter-attacking, defending in and out of balance, creating attacking overloads and many more.
