As a coach, you must sure that they are adequately included in the practice sessions. Be in charge of your body: This is the key thing to master in soccer. When the player is moving about in the field with the ball trying to make his way through the opponents, his control over his body is instrumental in attacking the opposition. But how would you guarantee this talent in each team member? Make them play a very interesting game during soccer drills. What is required is that the players use any of their articles or accessories to make a tail and be a part of this amusing game. Then their mission is to catch each others tails while protecting their own. What is interesting is that the ball is not needed for this activity to take place initially. Stop using the superficial tails and start using the ball after your team has understood the message. As is evident, these soccer coaching drills polish their skills in protecting the ball while at the same time exercising greater control over the body. Keeping the ball in the air: This drill will eventually help your team grow into multifaceted professionals. Stand in the center and direct your team members to make a circle around you. Then pass the ball to players one by one and make them pass the same to each other or to you in return. The objective is to keep the ball in the air and not allow it to touch the ground at any time. This activity restricts your players from using their hands at any point in time. Involve only your head, feet or knees. At the beginning, you can have them do this in big groups and eventually, introduce smaller groups. There are several positive returns from these soccer exercises such as the ability to focus, coordinate, and kick the ball. Respond and react: One of the many useful soccer training drills to teach the players to react immediately and with force. Tell the players to make a circle and stand with their backs to each other. Choose a player and tell him to stand in the center of the circle. This player will take a player's name randomly and kick the ball at him. The other player will react as fast as he can, turn around, and control the approaching ball in the best possible way. In conclusion, these soccer coaching drills help your players not just learn new skills but also master themselves in controlling their body and mind. Soccer demands a great deal of involvement from the mind as well as body. Hence, help your players make the most of these drills so that they can exercise great control over both.
