How to design Effective Soccer Drills

 
 

 

Soccer drills must fit the theme of your entire practice session and integrate from beginning to end of practice.

  1. start with setting an objective for your soccer practice session

  2. pick themes for the drills to fit the objective. For example, if your theme is passing, incorporate passing drills into the warm-up, technical, fitness, tactical and scrimmage parts of your session.

  3. sequence the drills so that they connect as in point (2) above.

  4. plan for equipment needed to run the soccer drill, such as cones, pinnies and number of balls required. (Tip: the ideal mix for pinnies is 11 of colour A, 8 of colour B and six of colour C)

  5. plan for breaking players into small groups based on positions and how they will interact on the field. Example is right defender, right midfielder and right forward, or defenders as a group, etc.

  6. visualize the drill with your players in it.

  7. have the soccer drill written on a piece of paper with notes for coaching points, progression, groupings of players.
