Question

9x9 game my u11 team when they haven't got the ball, all the team seem to chase after the ball looks like 7/8 all in a heap near the ball, what would be your advise on this, and some training session regarding would be very helpful.

Graham Dewey thanks for your question re your current U11 challenges with 9v9 format of the game. I am keen to support you by exploring some possible solutions. In doing so, I would find the following insights useful: - is this issue of not spreading out a matchday one or is it also evident in practice sessions? - what sort of things have you tried in your practice sessions recently to support your young players with their understanding and application of creating space as a team and individually? - are you coaching your squad alone or do you have support from other adults? I look forward to hearing back from you. Regards, Vinny Halsall FA Grassroots Development Team
