6 GROUP 1-2 TRAINING DRILL

This training drill can be used directly after your physical warm up to get the balls moving and also to get your players zoned in. It is also a great training to layer, meaning you can start it small and easily make it longer to suit both handballing and kicking without having to alter the...

GAME PLAN VIDEO PART 1 – STARTING POSITIONING

I made this up late last year based on a specific but popular ball movement option of using the quarterback position at the stoppage.

Here’s another drill variation to reinforcing the habit of squaring up while kicking, 1 of the main attractors of successful kicking that ALL great players possess and display each and every time.

Pretty straight forward this one and not much to it so can be used for almost any team level or number of players.
