Would recommend this coaching book sessions are easy to follow and work really well all my players have commented on how much they have enjoyed the sessions with a real focus on a topic.
I have just recently purchased this new ebook from Pro Academy Drills I had previously bought the pro academy drills ebook and had been impressed with the drills in that. This one with the complete sessions is easy to follow and it’s good to have a plan that progresses up the pitch to make sure I can cover all topics with my team. They currently play 9v9 but I will use these sessions when they progress to 11v11.
