Coaching Possession with a Purpose Volume I shows you how to score with even a measly amount of time on the ball.
Coaching Possession with a Purpose Volume I features drills on how to use possession successfully in 11 different scenarios or skills. This includes combination play, creative mobility for the midfield, utilizing width and changing the point of attack. Drills in each chapter then enable you to teach your players how to make maximum use of possession to slice through the midfield, to get the ball into danger areas and to score more goals.

“I find this book to be comprehensive and informative. The sequence of progressions are well thought through, easy to understand and implement. I like the way the graphics are laid out, making it easy to visualize the session as a coach and put to practice in the field.
The conceptualization of each topic; Introduction, Game Relate, Game Specific & Conditioned Match Play allows coaches to have proper sequence to follow, thus allowing the achievement of objectives in each training session.
The sessions presented within “Coaching Possession with a Purpose” will give me a new perspective of playing the ‘possession game”, and not telling players to pass for passing sake!
I will definitely add this book to my collection of my must-have manuals for coaching.” Michael Adam, Triple T Soccer Academy
“This guide exposes the fallacy of chasing ‘crazy high ball possession’ with no strategy”
Defenders have a lot to remember, particularly the youngsters. They have to know when to track back, not to charge in, to block shots and to get in the correct positions. Even elite players can
Many coaches crave massive high possession stats almost as much as goals on the scoresheet. It’s seen as a sign that your tactics are working, that your players have great ball control and the discipline to wait for an opening.
The problem with so many coaches eager to keep possession is that tactics have emerged to beat teams playing a high possession style. In fact, many teams will happily sit back and let you ping the ball around to your heart’s content knowing that you pose zero danger until you try to attack.
Coaching Possession with a Purpose Volume I is unique in its handling of weak possession play in modern soccer, and how to improve it. Its drills ensure that possession becomes the game winning advantage it should be and your players push forward instead of standing still.
Written by two coaches with vast and international experience
Coaching Possession with a Purpose is a book born from the passion of its two authors, Jonny Carter and Michael J Louter, for developing the core skills young players need for success.
Carter has coached his own ‘Principles Based’ methodology on tactical soccer across Europe, America and Asia. His key specialty is youth development and establishing the right culture and environment in which young players can grow. He’s a strong believer in giving players the opportunity to solve real soccer problems, rather than rely on a dictated style of coaching, in order to grow.
Carter holds an ‘A’ License and is head coach at Kowloon Cricket Club, Hong Kong, and is responsible for delivering the Nike Sports Camp in Hong Kong for elite youth players. He also runs the Education Football program, which trains coaches to develop their knowledge from foundation through to advanced. Carter and Louter are also the authors of Coaching the Principles of Soccer – Attack and Defense.
Michael J Louter has spent his life studying soccer coaching. In particular, he specializes in soccer psychology and the technical and tactical components that need to be combined to build a successful team.
While running elite soccer camps at Vitesse, Louter has been able to witness the benefits of his coaching philosophy firsthand. Through coaching at the camp’s state-of-the-art facilities in Tennessee, Louter has been able to work with elite level players and to further expand his vast coaching knowledge.
Louter holds a USSF ‘A’ Licence and an NSCAA Premier Diploma. He is currently the Director of Coaching at FC Dallas Tri and oversees the development of the U15-U19 teams.
What’s covered in Coaching Possession with a Purpose Volume I
Coaching Possession with a Purpose Volume I presents a complete guide to making maximum use of possession so you also pose maximum danger. Packed with detailed diagrams, setup instructions and coaching points, its drills will give your players a bigger advantage every time you win possession.

Each chapter also features multiple drills for different stages of play. This includes game related drills which have some relevance to game situations; progressions for raising the challenge; game specific drills with a direct connection to game situations and conditioned drills which are designed to encourage a specific behaviour from players.
“This new coaching manual from Jonny is a cracker. Jammed packed with carefully crafted training activities that really escalates a mere possession-based exercise into a training tool with massive impact on players and the team game-play style as a whole.
The scalability of the session plans allows me the flexibility to pitch the session exactly to the needs of my players, the vast majority of the exercises included within can be rolled out and delivered to a range of teams regardless of playing quality.
Possession based training activities are a staple in most coach’s repertoire, but this book raises the level into a new domain of coaching. Most recommended.’
” Nicolas Possetti, UEFA ‘A’ License, Technical Director/Coach
