Soccer Exercise
Push Away + Sprint
- Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19
- Training Set Main point
- Number of Players 1 - 5 players
Setup
The station is marked with two start and two end cones placed side by side. Players line up behind the starting cones. No more than 6-10 players per station.
Procedure
The two players try to push each other sideways. On the coach's command, they sprint against each other to the end cones.
Tip
- Quick 45-degree turn after pushing each other. - Palms are open, do not make fists. - Light, easy footwork, no stomping or pounding but nimbleness. - Quick, short movements. - Short ground contact time. - For the sprint, start in a staggered stance on the balls of the feet. At the beginning, the upper body leans far forward, the centre of gravity is at hip height, eyes look down. After a powerful push-off through the balls of the feet, the upper body is gradually raised, the eyes lift and the stride frequency increases. The arms move alternately to the leg movement (when the right leg goes forward, the left arm goes forward and vice versa). After the first 3-4 steps on the balls of the feet, the foot rolls through the whole foot (heel to sole to ball of foot), the upper body is upright and steady, stride frequency increases to maximum. - 4 cones
