Beginner training plan
Your first lessonFor my first lesson, I would focus on creating a fun, welcoming environment while introducing the players to the basics of soccer. I would start by introducing myself, setting simple expectations such as listening when the coach talks, respecting teammates, and always trying their best.
The session would begin with a fun warm-up game involving the ball to get players moving and comfortable, such as dribbling in space or “red light, green light.” From there, I would introduce one simple skill — for example, basic passing or dribbling — and run a short activity that allows every player lots of touches on the ball with minimal waiting time.
After the skill activity, I would transition into a small-sided game (such as 3v3 or 4v4) so players can begin applying the skill in a realistic but fun setting. I would encourage teamwork, communication, and effort more than results.
At the end, I would gather the group for a quick recap, highlight positive effort and sportsmanship I saw during the session, and finish on an encouraging note so players are excited to return.
My goal in a first lesson is not only to teach the game but also to build confidence, enthusiasm, and a love for soccer that can grow over time
Lesson 11+
• Warm-up (5–7 min):
• Number tag with the ball: Players dribble and when their number is called, they quickly transition to chase/defend.
• Focus: quick reactions and awareness.
• Skill focus (10–12 min):
• Win it, play it drill → Small groups (3v2 or 4v3). When defenders win the ball, they must quickly transition to attack by connecting 2–3 passes or dribbling into a target zone.
• Teaches players to instantly switch from defending to attacking.
• Activity (12–15 min):
• Wave game → 3 attackers vs 2 defenders go to goal. As soon as the play ends, the attackers become defenders against the next wave coming in.
• Keeps players moving and constantly switching roles.
• Game (15–20 min):
• 5v5 or 6v6 scrimmage with a focus on transition moments. Award bonus points for goals scored within 10 seconds of winning possession.
• Encourage communication: “We’ve got the ball!” → spread out, “We lost it!” → pressure quickly.
• Wrap-up (2–3 min):
• Praise quick reactions, teamwork, and awareness.
