'Just, Play' Mini Matches
School Years 2, 3, 4, 5
We are planning to run some 'taster' sessions in June 19, 26 & Jul 3
and are hoping to officially start the new season in September
|
Children will be grouped by ages and friendships and will be play mini matches on a rotational basis.
The environment will be unstructured with anyone allowed to play in goal (GK) or not. The children will decide. The children will learn to play, through play! They will play Penalty 'Pairs', where they get the chance to score and save penalties against their partner. Numbers will be limited to a maximum 3 teams (12 children per pitch) playing 5 minute matches on a rotational basis. Children will get 40 minutes of playing time (in line with FA guidelines) The games will be over seen by FFF coaches Why? Playing with less players will allow the children: More touches of the ball More 1v1 opportunities More chances to dribble More chances to shoot Simple decisions to make To develop an understanding of football before moving on to play; 5v5 in Year 3 7v7 in Year 4 More players = Less touches of the ball! Less players = More touches of the ball! |

We want to create an environment where the players and their performances are considered more important than the result.
Where the parents come to watch and the coach is there to guide the players through the learning process.
The players are expected to make mistakes and are allowed to learn from them and not berated for them.
The referee is free from abuse and decisions are accepted.
Where the children can basically, Play without FEAR!
“I have learned so much from all of my mistakes, I am thinking of making some more”
