Pro Trainer Training Drills

Warm up Drill

Run this drill with your whole team or with a small group of 6-8 players and they will all get lots of touches and a good fitness warm up to boot.

• X1 does "check" run from cone into the 4x4 target area
• X1 controls ball in target area (laces, inside of foot, thigh, chest)
• X2 makes "check" run into area as X1 moves to receive the ball
• X1 controls ball and dribbles around cones and returns ball to machine (never let them use their hands to pick up the ball, have them lift ball onto the back of the ramp with their feet)
• X1 recovers to starting position (doing icky shuffle forwards or backwards through cones)

Field size:

This layout can be set up in a 30 yd by 20 yd grid. You can make it bigger or small depending on the age and skill of the players.

Duration:

4 minutes R foot receive/right foot dribble/forward shuffle

4 minutes L foot receive/left foot dribble/backwards shuffle

This warm up gets players lots of touches, good running, and allows them to gain confidence for the next stage of your training session. Start with an easy ball to receive. Get them working on success! Then you can move on to more difficult serves and skills.

If your group is at the younger ages then shorten the field accordingly. Instead of eight cones to dribble through make it five. Instead of setting the Pro Trainer on power setting five lower it to 3 and so on. If you are training older skilled players then make it harder for them on the first touch. Turn up the power on the serve, increase the angle on the serve and make it a bouncing ball instead of a rolling ball.
