This week's exercises are part of a complete training session from Atlético Mineiro in Brazil. The training session is taken from our book, 'Modern Soccer Coaching'.
Warm-Up
Chain Tag (15 minutes)
All of the players move freely in a limited area. One player is ‘It’. Everyone he tags becomes part of the ‘Chain’ by holding the ‘It’ player’s hand. The game continues until everyone has been tagged.
Coaching Points
- Work as a team
- Goal setting - who to go after
- Deceptive movements to avoid being tagged
