Total
Training Series
The Total Training series allows players to focus on a
particular aspect of the complex game of soccer that they would like to
improve. In everyday club training,
there just isn’t enough time to focus in on individual skills that are most
needed for each individual on the team.
Through Total Training a player begins by setting personal goals for the
upcoming month, season & year. After
identifying these goals, he or she can choose the appropriate training series
that will help him or her meet these objectives.
Shooting, Finishing &
Goalkeeping (Level 1): Players
will be challenged to improve their technical ability in goal scoring
situations. The training program will
cover shooting for power, shooting for accuracy, volleys, heading and
more.
Shooting, Finishing &
Goalkeeping (Level 2): Players
will learn the finer details of shooting and finishing. Training will include bending shots,
finishing crosses, breakaways, and more.
Players will often be placed in pressure situations where proper
decisions and the use of good technique become difficult.
Defending: Players will work on defending
technique such as tackling and positioning.
The format is primarily a one vs. one setting where players will also
learn proper timing and make appropriate decisions on when to pressure, when to
tackle, etc.
Advanced Defending: The training will be focused in
a small group format. Defenders will be
challenged to make appropriate decisions as a group about when to pressure,
when to retreat, which direction to force the play, how close to cover, when to
double team, etc.
Dribbling (Level 1): Players will be challenged to
use both feet in the difficult art of individual ball control. Training will focus on dribbling in and out
of pressure, shielding, dribbling to attack, and more.
Dribbling (Level 2): This training curriculum will
challenge players to break out of their “comfort zone.” Players will be forced into high pressure
environments where their individual skill will be necessary for success. Dribbling to maintain possession in the
midfield and one vs. one attacking are two of many advanced concepts that will
be covered.
Speed, Agility &
Quickness: Athletes
will be challenged to improve their explosiveness, agility and balance through
a series of fun, but intense, training methods.
Players may feel a little sore at first, but the long term athletic
improvement is worth the pain.
