Warm-Up 3in1

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

Setup

Pitch: Mark out a square of about 15 x 15 metres with four cones. Outside the area, an agility ladder lies in the middle of one side.

Equipment: 4 cones, 1 agility ladder, bibs in two colours, 1 ball per player in the inside group.

Players: Two teams. One team works outside the area and moves along the sides of the area in a line, the other spreads out inside the area, where every player has a ball.

Procedure

  • The two groups warm up separately from each other.
  • Outside the area the player at the front demonstrates the exercises.
  • Coordination is trained on the side with the agility ladder, running technique drills are carried out on the sides to the left and to the right of it, and the side opposite the ladder is used for jogging down. New exercises are introduced in every round.
  • Inside the area one player sets Coerver exercises that the others copy.
  • After about 5 minutes the groups swap. The players can then stretch for another 2 minutes.

Note: Drill idea by Eddie Plickat.

Tip

  • Running technique drills comprise skipping, high knees, skip jumps, heel flicks, scissor steps, side steps, defensive work forwards and backwards as well as running backwards. Stabilisation exercises are also possible.
  • At the agility ladder, stepping exercises are more important than jump training. Make sure that the upper body always forms a straight line.
  • The Coerver exercises include the ball pendulum, the V-pull, sole drags or the ball dance, and feints can be practised as well.
  • Start slowly and increase the tempo. No more than 30 to 60 seconds should be spent on each exercise.
