COACHING MODERN FOOTBALL CHAPTER 8: CENTER BOUNCE CLEARANCE

                                                   

This is the most detailed chapter of the lot at 21 pages, 21 video clips and 24 images looking at many center bounce clearance formations you can use.

To train just choose the formations and movement you prefer, get your midfield together and get after learning them and get the timing of them down.

Center bounce clearance is the most vital part of getting field position because it's the only rime you'll have a 4v4 in a 50x50m space, if only for a few seconds or so.

If you can win out of their more then the opposition then you can start putting the other parts of your game model into the game but if you're not then everything you do is reactive and that's a terrible place to be during games.

This follows the previous 7 chapters:

#1 - Forward Press Defense

#2 - Lane Running

#3 - Midfielder Running Patterns

#4 - 666 Connection

#5 - Exploiting the Stand Rule

#6 - Team Formations

#7 - Creating/Utilising Length

If you're a local/amateur football coach then you're well aware that apart from your assistant coaches, there is distinct lack of readily available resources form where you can learn about different concepts used in football.

All coaches watch and read about footy and the different tactics and strategies that are used by are left wondering what is it exactly and how can I teach my players to do that?

That exact question is what I set out to answer in this mammoth series.

My plan going forward is to release a different chapter every Monday and Friday for 2 reasons:

1 - I want space the release time of each chapter enough to give you time read, digest and then get a handle on each chapter before the next one comes out to ease the mental load compared to receiving all of these chapters at once and then wondering where do I start? 

and;

2 - I also want to make all, or most, chapters available for all coaches before pre-season for 2025 commences so you can factor these new concepts into your plans for next season.

Make 2025 the season you positively turn your coaching practices upside down and re-energise your passion for teaching, coaching and leading your players.
