ENGLAND U21 ODDS OF SUCCESS
The chances of England batting better at the European U21 tournament seems to be much better than before. It’s hard to understand how Pearce decided Michael Mancienne, a defender, was a better bet for midfield against Spain than £20million-rated Everton star Jack Rodwell. It’s even harder to understand how Rodwell is rated at £20m.
Mancienne certainly looks the part, the part I had in mind was a player for Arsenal Ladies.
DRILL OF THE WEEK: PASSING PRACTICE
Mastering the art of soccer passing is a must if you want to perform well as a soccer player. Without good passing skills your time on the field will be short. Passing is so simple but still so difficult. It may look simple when professional players find each other with long and precise passes, but these players have spent thousands of hours on a soccer field practicing soccer passing.
DRILL OF THE WEEK: HIT COACH
The Hit the Coach soccer drill is for soccer players ages 3, 4, 5 and 6 (U3, U4, U5, U6).
This is my favorite practice game for U4 and U6 soccer players.
It’s easy, fun and the kids love it. It teaches many things – ball control, soccer dribbling, kicking the ball while running, looking up while dribbling and shooting. The kids learn while having fun and don’t get tired of it.
DRILL OF THE WEEK: SQUARE DRIBBLING
The Dribble Across A Square soccer drill is for soccer players ages 7 and older.
This game is a great warm up and the best way to teach soccer control dribbling, turning with the ball and how to "Breakaway". It is easy to make the square larger so players learn how to recognize Open Space and to "Breakaway".
This game teaches players to look up while dribbling (you will never have to say "look up" because they will have to look up to avoid running into each other.
DEFENDING THE BALL
This soccer defending drill is great for teaching young players how to defend when they are the closest player to the opponent with the ball.
Setup
* You will need the attacking third of a field with a full size goal.
* Split the team into two groups of defenders who start on both sides of the goal.
* Two attacking players are positioned outside the penalty area on both sides of the field, with a ball.
