Speed Training II

  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19, Men's / Women's
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players

Setup

Pitch: Set up two stations next to each other. At the first station the four hurdles stand in two pairs one behind the other, behind them lie four hoops in two colours, two of each colour. All around, yellow cones mark several cone goals. At the second station two cone goals made of red cones face each other: one counts for even numbers, the other for odd numbers.

Equipment: 4 hurdles, 4 hoops in two colours, cones in two colours.

Players: The players complete the stations one after the other, at the second station two players run together.

Procedure

  • Exercise 1: Two-footed jumps over the hurdles, then a sprint to a hoop of the colour called out. To finish, run through the cone goal diagonally opposite.
  • Exercise 2: Two players run at an easy pace from one cone goal to the other. At about the halfway point the coach calls out a number. With an even number the sprint goes through the cone goal for even numbers, with an odd number through the other one.

Tip

  • Leave enough rest between the individual rounds.
  • Have five to six rounds performed per drill.
  • Only call out the colour or the number once the players are on the way, so that they have to decide under time pressure.
