SOCCER DRILLS FOR GRASSROOTS COACHES
Soccer drills for
your next session.
12 practices for youth and senior teams. Each one covers the setup, how it runs, what to coach and how to make it easier or harder.
Drawn to real scale. You’ll notice the fields aren’t all the same size, and that’s on purpose. Every diagram is measured in meters and drawn just as it looks in the FCommit app, with players at their real size. So a tight 10 × 10 m rondo feels busy, and a 30 × 20 m game has room to breathe, just like on your training field. Using a screen reader? Every diagram comes with a written description too.
Warm-ups
Get players moving, thinking and on the ball from the first minute.
Passing & receiving

Possession
Keep the ball under pressure by finding space and good support angles.
1v1s & finishing

Pressing & defending
Win the ball back together and react quickly when it’s lost.
Small-sided games
Game-like practice to finish a session, with a rule that brings out your focus.
