Morning everyone,

We have uploaded the skill and game practices that build nicely on the two practices shared over the past couple of days as part of our Beginner’s Guide to Coaching.

The skill game is something we’ve used across all levels of the game. It’s easy to manage and consistently places players into 1v1, 2v1, and 2v2 duels.

The game practice is also straightforward to organise and encourages freedom within a framework, while challenging players across a range of scenarios that closely relate to the game itself.

Depending on your level and confidence as a coach, these practices can be simply managed or used to coach key outcomes; the choice is yours.

We hope you enjoy, and have a great weekend.

Afternoon,

We’ve just uploaded a technical practice that progresses nicely from yesterday’s warm-up in our Beginner’s Guide to Coaching.

This practice gives players plenty of touches on the ball, working across different techniques before leading into another fun, competitive dribbling game between the groups.

The skill practice and game will be uploaded tomorrow to complete Session 3.

Morning everyone,

We’ve just uploaded the third Beginner’s Guide to Coaching warm-up, which focuses on quick movements and sharp touches of the ball through a fun, competitive practice.

Over the next few days, we’ll be completing the remaining Beginner’s Guide to Coaching practices before bringing everything together create a class for the first part of our coaching pathway.

Afternoon everyone,

We’ve just uploaded another playing-out technical practice, this time focusing on dealing with a centre-forward and a wide forward pressing your back line.

Again, this is a practice we like to use as a lead-in when working with our core, helping to fine-tune the technical actions while painting a few tactical pictures.

We hope you enjoy. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to send them across.

Good afternoon,

We have added a playing-out practice based on building from the back, with three players against two pressing on the first line.

This was evident in the Arsenal v Liverpool game last week, where Arsenal had initial success before Slot tweaked the press, leading to Arsenal's struggles in the second half. 

This practice is available for all subscribers.

Keep an eye out for announcements on our live webinars, which will begin with this topic. These will be free for all subscribers. 

Morning everyone,

We’ve just uploaded one of our technical movement practices that we love to use as a lead-in for our attacking players - The Hat. This practice focuses on three specific movements designed to manipulate the defender.

Tip One
Ensure the player using the movement maintains eye contact with the ball. Players often have a tendency to spin the wrong way and lose sight of it. We’ve even seen this happen with top professionals! Ha

Tip Two
Don’t spend too much time trying to coach exact timing. Instead, challenge players to arrive on the ball at the right moment and avoid breaking their stride after receiving. Timing is something players need to feel. Coach more around the triggers, for example, a good open touch is a strong trigger for movement.

is there an ETA on the bielsa series?

We have added some tactical details from last night's Arsenal v Liverpool game. This includes eight practices related to Arsenal's struggles in building with a +1 on the defensive line.

Mikey at Tactx has provided the talkover, and you may hear he is a little under the weather! More will be added to this over the next two days.

Our latest tactical analysis is based on the new Chelsea manager, Liam Rosenior. 

In the video, we discuss the strengths and weaknesses of his playing style and how it will suit Chelsea. 

We think he will improve the culture at Chelsea, and his mannerisms and personality will help him connect with the players and fans. 

He is a relatively young coach, and the detail on the pitch will need work to create the success that a club like Chelsea requires. 

Have a watch and let us know what you think. This is available to everyone.

Morning, everyone. Hope you all had a lovely weekend.

We’ve just uploaded another playing-out technical practice, which again focuses on four simple patterns for dealing with a one-player press.

This is a core practice we like to use as a lead-in when working with our centre-backs, full-backs, and deeper midfielders (The Core).

We’ll break this down in greater detail once we finalise our Playing Out class. Hope you enjoy.
