Week 30 Dribbling & Finishing Circuit

Instructions/Setup:

This circuit focuses on developing key technical skills such as dribbling, passing, and finishing. Players will dribble between poles, pass to teammates, then navigate through cones before finishing at the end of the circuit. This exercise is designed to improve individual ball control, passing accuracy, and finishing under pressure.

Coaching Notes:

• Dribbling Technique – Ensure players keep close control of the ball while dribbling, using both feet to maneuver quickly through the poles.

• Passing Accuracy – Focus on making precise passes to teammates, encouraging quick and accurate decision-making.

• Finishing Under Pressure – Train players to finish efficiently while under pressure from defenders or fatigue, aiming for placement over power.

• Body Positioning – Emphasize proper body positioning when receiving the ball to set up for the next action (pass or finish).

Progression 1: Add Defenders

Introduce defenders to challenge players while dribbling or finishing, forcing them to make quicker decisions under pressure.

Focus: Develop composure and decision-making in game-like situations.

Progression 2: Increase Speed

Increase the pace of the circuit to improve players' speed and ability to perform skills under higher intensity.

Focus: Enhance agility, speed, and reaction time during dribbling and finishing phases.
