      These exercises are beneficial for any team of any level looking to improve player decision making under pressure (which is essentially the foundation of the game). For teams who play a long ball game and rely on their biggest, fastest player (common in youth soccer), there is likely less benefit from these rondos. What they will definitely do is improve individual and team ability to keep possession, even if that’s not something you are good at right now.

    • @PaulSpacey
      @PaulSpacey  Рік тому +1

      great comment and absolutely true. We need to spend time on specific rondos to allow the players to improve their speed of decision making but they also need variety, both from a learning perspective and also to keep them challenged. Game-specific situations and tactical work is clearly required on top of rondos but there is no question that rondos can play a big part in player and team development, particularly if the focus is on quality, not just running the rondos for the sake of it or just as a warm-up.

    super concise video. love it. great you show the tactical board AND the video of players demonstrating each rondo. For the 8 V 3 rondo, have you found an efficient way to switch the middle 3 defenders? About how long does each group play D? I just started coaching a high school girls team in CT and I find that the girls like the competitive rondos especially with goals for the defenders to score in.

    • @PaulSpacey
      @PaulSpacey  Рік тому +1

      Thanks for the feedback Steve. For the 8v3, we usually have the middle 3 working for around 2 minutes. If they win possession, they try to keep it but we’ve also used goals that they can score in at each end. Having the goals as an option makes it more engaging for the defenders, especially with young players.

      @coachedu5843 Рік тому +1

      @@PaulSpacey I THINK ADDING the goals certainly makes it more interesting for the chasing team, 3XP. another way to do it is divided in teams of 3s, it would be 9v3 but can always have a team of 2 and then when they go in, an extra player from from the other team can be added.

      You can make all of the rondos competitive. For smaller rondos, have many groups and move up/down the groups depending how well you perform (losing the ball the most relegates you to the lower group for example).
      For bigger rondos, add goals with certain rules, such as scoring after transferring the ball from end to end for example.

    how long would you do each of these rondos for during a session?

    • @PaulSpacey
      @PaulSpacey  Рік тому +3

      Depends on the age group and level of players. The younger/lower levels would usually be a shorter time. Older/higher level players can work on a specific rondo for 30+ minutes and maintain both the quality and intensity.
      A good rule of thumb for most youth players is 15-20 minutes for one of these rondos. It gives enough time to work on the concepts without it getting stale and boring. The most important thing is always the quality/intensity; if you just go through the motions, you get way less benefit and of course that goes for all training. As a coach, you’ve got to place a huge emphasis on the quality and intensity of what players are doing.

    @shmeckel4269 Рік тому

    They are all standing still 4 v 1 on the outside with the defender running in circles to intercept the ball. It should be 3v1 in a square shape which forces the players to move without the ball to get into position to receive from the player with the ball.. not 4 guys standing around on the outside passing it in a circle.

    • @PaulSpacey
      @PaulSpacey  Рік тому

    • @shmeckel4269
      @shmeckel4269 Рік тому +1

      I watched the first couple drills and thought to comment before I finished the video so I must have missed the 3v1. I think the most vital rondo is 3v1 and maybe should be shown first and as the tab in the video for several reasons:
      1. your practice squad can be short of players and younger teams have less players (8 or 12 perhaps) so a drill with only 4 is accommodating.
      2. 3v1 rondo teaches one of the harder things for younger players to grasp which is where and when to move without the ball to help your team keep possession.
      3. Players learn to properly defend since with only 3 attackers in play, the defender can learn about denying passing options and forcing the player with the ball to commit an error which can be intercepted or tackled upon arrival to the one remaining available option.
      The 3v1 rondo is king! Trains ball control in tight spaces, field vision, movement without the ball, and proper defensive strategy.

    • @PaulSpacey
      @PaulSpacey  Рік тому +1

      I agree. 3v1 is the best rondo for young players, both in terms of touches and difficulty but also in terms of movement required and the learning of angles/space.

      Soccer is an English word for the game used to distinguish Association football from rugby football, or "footer" as it used to be called. "Assoccer" became just soccer and only later gave way to "football". But the countries that call it soccer do so because that's what British expats who introduced the game called it at the time.
