Discover How You Can Run Specialist Training Sessions for Advanced Players

Wow, finally a special teams approach to training! The Coach’s Guide to Position Specific Training is a unique guide on how to run specialist  training sessions like elite level coaches. It shows you how to run sessions that will develop your players in the specialist skills for their position, all in the same session.

 

Dear Coach,

Soccer is one of the most innovative sports. But it lags behind when it comes to position specific training. Unfortunately, not all of us have the budgets of elite level sides, and can afford to hire specialist coaches for defenders, the midfield and strikers, as well as for goalkeepers. Thankfully, you no longer have to. Our new book, The Coach’s Guide to Position Specific Training, reveals how to run specialist training for different positions all in the same session.

Split into three parts, it’s packed with position specific drills that are focused on the skills, mindset and scenarios for defenders, midfielders and forwards. This allows you to split your squad into groups so they can focus on the key skills for their position and get bigger improvements from every session.

Whether you want to improve defensive transitions, turn your midfield into a well oiled engine room or enhance the technical skills of your forwards, The Coach’s Guide to Position Specific Training has the drills that help you do it.

“Being able to split your squad into groups means each player gets more time to focus on their position and gain bigger improvements from every session”

Giving players the coaching they need for their position can be challenging when you don’t have an army of coaches or willing parents to rely on. But giving players position specific training, which mirrors real game scenarios, can be a fast track route to success.

If you want to expand your training sessions without having to break your coaching budget, The Coach’s Guide to Position Specific Training could be the blueprint you’re looking for. Brimming with training drills focused on defensive work, midfield shape and developing a sleek attacking front line, it allows you to select drills for each part of your team and get every player focusing on the core skills for their position all in the same session.

In soccer it’s certainly true that team performance is the sum of its parts. Now you can improve each part and dramatically improve your team overall.

What’s covered in The Coach’s Guide to Position Specific Training

The Coach’s Guide to Position Specific Training is split between the different positions, with an extensive analysis of the roles and responsibilities of each. This includes skills requirements, typical playing style, physical requirements, situations they’ll face with and without the ball and the ideal mindset. After analyzing how these attributes relate to your own players can you select the most appropriate drills from each chapter.

The first part of The Coach’s Guide to Position Specific Training covers defensive drills. This includes defensive organisation with transitions, functional work, group tactics playing out from the back and blocking long range shots.

Whether you want to create a fox in the box, a withdrawn number 9 or a traditional target man, there are drills in The Coach’s Guide to Position Specific Training that will help you do it. Drills covered include patterns of play involving fullbacks, finishing on goal and incorporating functional wide players.
