One soccer practice, drill by drill

Press Print the lesson plan. Write one drill or game on each row, with its minutes, the one or two things you will coach and the equipment to set out. Focus, the last of the lines at the top, is what the whole practice works on.

A sports lesson plan template for any team

Coaching another sport? Practice plan for any sport is the same table with a Sport line, and Field or court where the soccer sheet says Field. Prefer headings to a table? The ruled version runs from Warm-up through two skills and game play to the team talk.

The sample is a made-up 60 minute practice for players under 10, from a dribbling warm-up to 4 v 4 games.
Running stations? Six numbered stations each get a skill, a drill, a coach and equipment.
Season plan gives each of 10 weeks a skill focus, a team play focus and a game or meet.
