Two players wait with their backs to the coach; on the signal they turn and sprint to the ball the coach has played in. First to the ball attacks the mini goal, the other defends. Reaction, acceleration and a duel in one action.

Warm-up: ball tag

Chasing game where everyone dribbles a ball: two taggers in bibs try to touch the others, who escape by dribbling away. The most fun way to start with young kids.

Frequently asked questions

What kinds of football drills are there?

The library is organised into goalkeeping, technique (passing, control, dribbling, finishing, heading), tactics (possession, rondos, pressing, transitions, small-sided games), fitness (speed, coordination, agility, warm-up), psychology and general drills.

How do I pick the right drill for my team?

Use the age, level and number-of-players filters to see only drills that fit your group. Each page lists the equipment and space needed and offers progressions and regressions to raise or lower the difficulty.

Can I print or share the drills?

Yes. Every drill has a print view and a public link you can share with your coaching staff. You can also add it to a training session.
