Activation rondo in 8x8 m squares: four keepers of the ball against one presser who swaps out every time they touch the ball. Ideal to start the session with the ball and rhythm.
Progressive warm-up in pairs: passing combined with dynamic mobility, controls with lateral movement and a final activation with short sprints to a central cone.
Progressive: start with joint mobility and easy running, continue with the ball (passing, rondos) to activate technique and finish with short explosive actions (sprints, changes of pace) that prepare the player for the intensity of training.
About 20 minutes: running and mobility, a rondo or square passing for 6 to 8 minutes, a short small-sided game and progressive sprints right before kick-off. Goalkeepers need a specific hand and footwork warm-up.
Yes, but in a playful way: tag with the ball, chasing games and short circuits work better than continuous running to keep their attention and activate coordination.
