Coaching Intermediate Players at TST
(Level 3)
[U8-u11 depending on when they join the program]
 
(Establish the FFPs)

At this level, players spend the first 3rd of the session isolating footwork.

There are a number of possible approaches we follow; This will be laid out at the start of term

    • Pick a key fundamental technique and ensure that this is in each pattern.
        • EG Practice patterns that end with a little toe touch
        • EG Practice patterns that end with an inside touch
    • Pick a group of FFPs (which cover a number of different directions/game scenarios) and work on these
        • Lateral:
        • Lateral Only :
        • Turns :
        • 90degree change of direction (Drag V)
 
As players develop then introduce other advanced FFPs or combine FFPs in creative but game functional ways
 
Sessions format;
1. Isolate footwork
2. Play tech games
3. Play SSG (2v2s or 3v3s with specific rules depending on age)
