2⃣5⃣0⃣0⃣0⃣ Followers! 😲🤯 thanks everyone.

Let's celebrate with a thread of Rondo designs that helped me to gain some followers back in the day. I still use adaptations of these Rondos today.

4v2 Transition with screening player. A player can drop into the central zone to aid transition of the ball:

- Receive to play forward
- Bounce pass for someone else to play forward
- Movement may create a passing lane for the ball to go forward, bypassing them

Thread: @TallTinyFooty

One of the most enjoyable programmes I've implemented during my time as a coach. Maybe you can take some ideas from, 'Tall & Tiny Footballers.'

Sessions encouraged adults to join in the fun and create a positive learning environment for the children ⚽️🏃‍♀️ Image Initially reviewing some of our programmes for roughly 3 to 5 year olds, I found:

▪️ Coaches having difficulty engaging the group
▪️ More 'sit' and 'listen' than 'run' and 'fun'
▪️ Lace tying, bathroom breaks and babysitting
▪️ Coaches stressed when they should be smiling Image
