At Home training

Videos and Resources

Individual training at home is the best way to improve your technical abilities. Relying on team training sessions to get your touches will only slow down your development and limit your ability to get to the next level. Below are some resources for you to use at home in order to stay active and continue developing into the star player you dreamed of.

AT HOME TRAINING - TECHNICAL/SKILL RESOURCES

INDIVIDUAL TECHNICAL TRAINING


Use the videos below for training at home. The majority of activities can be done safely in a small area, with limited resources required. Below are fun ways to utilize these videos with yourself or teammates. The best players get +1,000 touches EVERY DAY!


Technical Video Homework


Assign yourself 2-3 specific skills each week. Practice each skill for 5-10 minutes, followed by a 1-minute test period. When testing, try to complete as many repetitions of the skill in 1 minute. Record your score and try to beat it each day.
 

Technical Video Team Competition


Assign 2-3 specific skills to your team each week. Ask the team to compete against each other in scoring the highest score by the end of the week. Players can submit their performance via video in a team group chat (WhatsApp, GroupMe, etc).


Technical Video Skill Contest


Record yourself doing the wildest trick you can complete. The team can vote at the end of the week who had the coolest skill. *Everyone must enter a video*

SOCCER KICKWALL IDEAS


Kickwalls are a tremendous tool for enhancing the development of young soccer players. Some of the best players in the world give credit to their countless hours spent practicing on their own using just a ball and a wall. Below you'll find links to building your own kickwall, as well as ideas for training on your own.
