  3. Coaching Calendar

  4. So how do we get there? • U9 and U10 teams mirror our U11 goal. • Two top teams and two lower teams at U11 sets up for teams at all three levels (C1/C2/C3) at U12 • U9 and U10 team formation will start us down this road.

  5. What are the problems we encounter with the new direction? • We were not as dominant at the U9-U11 age groups • At U11 We lost 3 players who were not interested in creating a strong age group as they couldn’t see past their own child’s winning record • At U11 Our classic 3 teams struggled as more stronger players were pulled up to the top level • We were overly strong at the U12 age group at two levels • We had more teams playing classic 3 than we needed at U12 • At U12 we lost 2 players who were searching for that quick classic 1 placement

  6. What worked ? • We developed a solid group of 20 players at U9-U11 • At U13 we have a stepping stone and it is attainable with more opportunities for all players • We did all of this with 99.5% non recruited players • Although rostered at a level that was too low for the team the coaches entered the team into tournaments at a higher level • The top team at each age level was put under pressure not just to contain the best players but to be the better team and outplay rather than out run, out muscle or even outscore the opponents • This next year we are restructuring the master coach program and adding a Technical Coach to spend more time with players on the basic things • As we have improved the top, stabilized the middle our job over the next year is to push the lower half harder

  7. GOAL: Opportunities at all levels at U13 C1 C2 C3 2009 2010 r 2011 C1 C2 C3 2009 2010 2011 BOYS P P O P P P P P P U13 Boys were relegated after a difficult fall season GIRLS P O P O P P P P P

  21. 2011 Season U9/10 Winter Training November/ December 2010

  22. Playing Time Playing time in the competitive program is earned not guaranteed. If a player attends practices and demonstrates a high work rate then that player is entitled to play. If a player cant make practice it is their responsibility to let the coach know. CC United coaches do not look to develop a strong line up to win games. They will strive to develop the team and the committed players within to be as competitive as possible We will strive to win not to win at all costs

  23. Goals and Objectives CC United coaches are given goals and objectives for their own age group . These objectives have 7 months in which to be achieved and are shared with the parents and players, allowing them to see beyond results for a measure of success. The objectives are both team and player orientated and will set a precedent of what the coach will be covering in all practices. Using this format will ensure that each player receives specific age appropriate training at the correct time in the year and this will also will serve as a form of self evaluation for each of the coaches. The development topics increase in difficulty as the team gets older and increases in ability. It is recommended that the coaches go through the younger age groups topics before progressing giving the players a foundation to build on Two types of training – Technical and Functional with a ratio of 6-1 When the season begins each player will have received a session in all techniques so the remaining two and a half months will focus in on either a high usage techniques (passing/Dribbling/receiving) or one specific technique that the team is having trouble with that is affecting their performance in games. Defending At U9 and 10 a minimal amount time will be spent working on defending. Individually the coach will focus on the player winning possession through correct body shape, distance to the ball and patience. The coach will emphasize good team shape so the topic of 2nd defender on the field will not be a problem. At U9 and 10 most time will be spent coaching positive techniques stressing the importance of maintaining possession successfully creating scoring opportunities through as many different players as possible.

  24. Development Topics February- May Individual Technical Training Ball familiarization Dribbling for possession Dribbling for speed Dribbling to beat a player Receiving Receiving in the Air Passing- Long and short Shooting Finishing Defending April – May Functional Team Training Playing in and around the back Positioning of forwards Working with wide players Making the first Diamond Total Team shape Changing the point of attack- Switching fields Corners Throw ins May- August Technical Training maintenance Speed of play Ball familiarization Dribbling for possession Dribbling for speed Dribbling to beat a player Receiving Receiving in the Air Passing Shooting and Finishing Defending Combination

  31. Commitment

  32. Parent Education To the parents of the U10 Girls team This past week in our two practices we worked on passing back to the goalkeeper and long distance passing. For our long distance passing we worked on the position of the non kicking foot and the striking area of the ball. Most of the girls were able to pass the ball across the width of the field. This is something they can strive to complete by the end of the season. Please try to recognize the difference between a long distance pass and a boot up the field. A pass is purposeful and to someone’s feet or to a specific space that they can run onto The reason we pass back to the goalkeeper is to eliminate pressure from an opponent that plays constant long passes or boot ball. Most teams we play against just kick the ball out in panic or try to turn. Turning in this situation is risky as the player on the ball cannot see the field and booting it out gives the ball to the other team closer to our goal. We want our kids to be comfortable in this high pressure environment. The problem on receiving the pass is that the goalkeeper cannot use her hands so we then need our supporting players to get wide and get ready to receive the ball. If we are successful we will eliminate teams that only play direct and we also draw the opponents closer to our goal creating more space closer to theirs. This style may create mistakes that are costly so please be ready to support the player who attempts this as the rewards far outweigh the risks. Between now and the next game try to watch a game of soccer with your daughter and see how the professional teams use their goalkeeper In our next game if our players make a long pass or show body language to pass back to the goalkeeper then they have been successful Jonathan Tudor Director of Coaching CC United Soccer Club Jonathantudor@comcast.net 612 889 0668 www.ccunitedsoccer.com To the parents of the U10 Girls team This season we will all be taking a turn in the dreaded goalkeeper position. We will provide gloves and some basic technical training. What we want from our goalkeepers is to first use their feet and then their hands as their 1st job is to cover the back line of players and be ready to run out and kick away any through balls. Our goalkeepers are not restricted to their penalty box. The penalty box is the only area they can use their hands if the ball wasn’t passed back from one of our team mates. On picking up the ball she can move anywhere inside the box with the goal of finding an open player to distribute to. Our goalkeepers will also be encouraged to move out of their penalty box to use their feet and kick away long passes that go behind our defenders Jonathan Tudor Director of Coaching CC United Soccer Club Jonathantudor@comcast.net 612 889 0668 www.ccunitedsoccer.com

  33. U9/10 Game Objectives

  34. Game Objectives Introduction When teams play, the players, coaches and parents all walk away with one thing in common knowledge. The result and how it happened. Who scored the goals, what the referee did and what other outside factors were in play to affect the score of the game. They focus on how their child played and praise their performance without understanding the requirements are in any one position on the field. Starting 2008 the coaches and players at CC United will look to achieve certain objectives in each game. The Objectives will not only aid their team performance but will also look to give players a better understanding on how the team works and how to play their position. This will also put more pressure on the coach, who must devise a practice during the week to work on the game objective. For many years the coach has always taken the team away from the parents leaving them unaware on what has been worked on or the development process the players go through. Understanding the game is a massive concept and is one that is too big to try and tackle in one piece. Procedure Each week the coach will work on a theme and lead it into a game objective. The game objectives are listed in order that the players need to accomplish. It may be possible to achieve more than one objective in a game. The coach will move on when the team demonstrates a recognition of when/ how to execute In the following slides are a list of game objectives. The coach will replace the formation with players names and print a copy for the players before each game. The players then share this information with the parents.

  35. GK Game Objective 1 F Establishing Depth The forward should be the highest player never coming back to defend. The forward’s positioning is either level with the last defender on the opposing team or on the half way line pending on which one is closest to the opponents goal The Goalkeeper should move up with the team (coming out of the penalty box) maintaining a distance behind the last defender appropriate for cover

  36. W Game Objective 2 W Establishing Width Our wide players are key as through their positioning they give us either a passing option or create room to attack centrally. When the team is in possession of the ball the wide players must be the closest players to the sideline

  37. Game Objective 3 To maintain our TOTAL team attacking shape Our shape should expand in possession Our Shape (including GK) should move forward and backwards in relation to the ball The Wide players should move up and back making diamonds with the central players

  38. Game Objective 4 Whilst the game is in motion to get players comfortable in changing or breaking out of positions and continuing to maintain our team shape

  39. Game Objective 5 To improve our defensive team shape When we lose possession of the ball our shape must get smaller and compact. Giving the opponent no room to pass

  40. Game Objective 6 To pass the ball from one side to the other (switch) using any of our central players To do this we need players to stay wide so that when the final pass is made the receiving player is either 1v1 or has space to dribble into

  41. Game Objective 7 To get the back players comfortable in playing back to the goalkeeper Note: As the ball is going back to the keeper the fullbacks are getting wide to make a diamond. The keepers next decision will be based on how the opponents react

  42. Game Objective 8 To get the team comfortable in playing from a goal kick To do this the goalkeeper places the ball in the middle of the Goal area (small box) The wide players must go wide and the two central players split between central right and central left Note: if the opponents mark up all of our player the GK is encouraged to kick to space or the field players look to change places

  43. Ball Player Game Objective 7 To create an open player from a throw in 1. The receiving player is marked so he checks (moves quickly) to the ball

  44. Ball Player Game Objective 8 • To create an open player from a throw in • The receiving player is marked so he spins and runs into the space behind

  45. Ball Player Game Objective 9 • To create an open player from a throw in • The receiving player is marked so he spins and runs into the space behind • The Defender follows. The midfielder checks into the space

  46. Game Objective 10Corners 1 2 3 To create a goal scoring opportunity from Corners 1. Short pass 2. The cross to the middle 3. The corner of the box All are ready to cover their zone. The players must choose an option based on pressure
