Beginner training plan
Your first trainingI believe that the first thing new players should know is how to properly kick a ball. Basic techniques are the foundation.
The first 5 minutes are for stretching and warming up.
I would start drills with basic, stagnant passing with the player. I create two 3 yard gates about 7 yards across from each other and just pass with the player for about 10-15 minutes and focus solely on technique. This would get repeated for both the right and left foot.
After this, I would spend about 10-15 minutes working on juggling because having a good touch on the ball is very important.
The last 5-10 minutes are used for a cooldown and for discussion about the training session.
Training 2-3When beginner-level players start utilizing properly kicking techniques consistently, I begin to incorporate certain movements with a ball so the player can build on stagnant techniques.
I would use cones and pass with the player again and gradually move into different progressions of passing. I would work on receiving the ball and moving it sideways and passing it back, receiving it and moving it forward and passing it back, and just keep working on passing the ball back without allowing the ball to come to a complete stop.
I would continue to work on juggling after this to keep the practice going on touch and keep the ball controlled.
Training 4-10These lessons would get into more aerial control, controlling fast passes, and being able to manipulate the ball exactly how you want with your foot.
I would continue to progress the drill in different ways and increase the pace of play to simultaneously work on stamina and ball control.
This is also when EQ gets a lot more of a focus - demonstrating how the ball moves faster than the player, finding spaces to play the ball and moving around, and not staring at the ball the entire time as well. Looking up and seeing the field of play is a huge benefit of having great ball control because you can feel the ball at your feet and move it as you wish when you get comfortable with your control.
Training 11+This is when dribbling and shooting get their extensive time in training. I don’t believe in prioritizing those individual skills right away because soccer is a team sport and the more you learn how to play it that way, the more effective you become wherever you play. I don’t leave out passing and moving completely. I just have to cut down on the time spent on those skills or incorporate them in drill alongside dribbling and shooting.
