Group Sessions

Summary:

• £15 per session (1 hour)
• Minimum of 4 players
• One or two coaches depending on attendees

Group sessions are an opportunity for players to come together with a common goal in having the same ambition of improving their game and developing skills further. Group sessions are dealt with in a way where we find out what the objectives and targets are for the specific group of players (a minimum of 4). We then simply analyse and create a plan of action to help build on whatever foundations are presented to us which a lot of the time is position specific work. Football is a team sport so why not be challenged and pushed to overcome in a group effort.

We believe training with the right group of individuals can be so beneficial. Implementing these types of sessions into your routine will only advance you as a player. Nothing beats healthy competition, being tested comes with the recipe of growth. Like anything we do, we aim to deliver focused sessions with nothing less than 100% input from both the coaches and players. However, having fun, making jokes and having a laugh is all part of a balanced training regime. Training hard always looks better with a smile.

It’s all about keeping players engaged and always doing something. If you’re not the centre of attention for a specific drill, you’ll be sure enough to be contributing to the intensity and playing a part. Just like in a match. Depending on a group’s ability, the difficulty and number of drills done are all affected as some groups will need more or less time developing a skill than others. Having said that, sessions will be regimented, always beginning with a warm up and a good stretch to help prepare the body for the exercises and drills to follow. A lot of group interaction and focus is required as E.R.L believes players need to be able to be in charge of their responsibilities of what they bring to a session. Some of these things could be taking extra care with the ball to make sure delivery to fellow team mates are of good standard and quality. Another may be a good attitude in keeping team mates encouraged and doing their bit in keeping a positive environment.
