I need to learn to break by myself and dribble through into space :/
Literally one of the best videos I’ve ever seen.
Amazing session. Just one question. Will this work for u7 kids?
Such an incredible resource you've got here Ben. The video's are invaluable for new coaches like me. Im studying up every day and writing my coaching schedule in prep for a season start in January, here in Australia. Cant thank you enough. Cheers. I would also like to see a video on support play that you mentioned at the start of this video 😉😄😄
nice
very good job Coach Bravo
im working this year with u11 categorie (2013/2014) and i'm having difficulty to make them playing with Possession of the ball because they are used to playing individually in the last year, anyway i will trying to use this session with them
and i have qeustion please: do you think its okey when the coach find 25 children in the team to work with them in one session alone?
how much children you work with?
Love this explainer video. Awesome job.
As an older player who only took up the game 5 yrs ago, this is the coach session I never had but should have had early on. XD Lots of soccer basic elements communicated in a clear, engaging manner, for little tikes and old fogeys alike XD
I had to search for this video again because of this "white tactical magnetic board"….I wud like to knw how to get it…cos I searched it on Amazon,but didn't see anything close to it…. thanks 🙏
Please can you put the previous weeks “support play” video that he prefaces at the beginning??
Fantastic session
Brilliant video that thanks very much
As an educator, more play, less lectures! Kids hate sitting in class and listening to educators. Guided discovery. The game will teach them how to solve the problems.
I think its to early to talk about build-up so deeply. Because the main part of this age 7-10 years old is to play 1v1 make a dribble fint. and I see you do mistakes you telling them when to brake, they need to decide when to attack aggresive not by coach. Better affter situation to stop. And ask what you guys thinking there was possibility to brake in this situation or not ? They need to think by themself they need to play as much as possible 1v1 , 2v1 have good dribling fint, pass is not the most important think in this age.
this has to be some of the best youth coaching i’ve ever seen
Very nice 💯💯
i have just started coaching an u7 for this coming season. I used your stretch & squeeze set up last week and to my surprise the kids actually got the hang of it. even at the age of 6 by the end of the session they were getting into them positions. Their ability is mid to high individually – but getting them to stop running with the ball is really really difficult. I think this video is what i need to sort of implement but i feel they are probably still to young for it. They 100% need to improve on their passing accuracy etc for this to work at its best. You videos are brilliant – i was hesitant about using a board but i now feel its the way forward.
Hi , great video!!! Do you know where I could get the same whiteboard set?
As a U10 coach this video showing an actual session with kids was a great format and nice to see how it actually applied in real life. There's loads of content out there with great ideas but demoed with adults so it's harder to see how it translates to grassroots. If you've got plans for more videos of your sessions like this it would be hugely welcome. Cheers 👍

You're talking a lot when the kids are playing here. Works ok for video watchers, but for players? Maybe take a step back, let them play and give input when you stop the game?
Great video, just being able to hear the tone shifts and your positioning along with thier body language, helped me see how in other videos you speak in a way they understand or connect with and keeps them focused and engaged.
Great session thanks for posting. How old is this group? At what age should the team start learning about possession?
The most impressive thing for me is the control you have with the group.
Im reqlly struggling with my team messing around, talking when im talking, same people putting equipment away every time etc
