Horses’ Mouth
There is a common denominator among kids playing soccer, especially boys, most play video games. When I needed to learn what game, model, (Ninetdino Switch, Xbox or Play Station) I should buy for my son’s Christmas present, I asked the travel soccer teams I coached that season.
I was able to learn the features, key functions, and best locations of sale. I learned more details than if I searched online.
Players’ In Control
How often have your players get bored at practice? Have you heard the common questions, ‘When are we going to scrimmage,’ ‘That drill again?,’ ‘That’s boring.’, ‘What time is it?’.
Many times, these are key indicators of players not having fun at a practice.
Your players learn, improve performance, and have fun when they are in control. When they can devise a plan to solve the mission, from which they will be rewarded for success, not only creates fun, but they improve the technical and tactical of learning the game.
PLAN NEXT MISSION
For your next practice apply some of the following steps to create a video game-like training session. Create a challenge and allow your players to solve.
- Plan a session with a mission involved.
- To accomplish that mission, there must be constraints to overcome.
- Each level of constraint provides extraordinary incentives for their team.
- Limit your use of technical/tactical cues
- Do not explain the process, only the end goal
