football training program for youth: Periodization Fitness Training - A Revolutionary Football Conditioning Program Javier Mallo, 2014-07-31 Javier Mallo is currently a fitness coach at Real Madrid. He has previously been a fitness coach at Manchester City (2 years) and Atletico de Madrid (4 years). In this book, he explains how to create, organise and structure your football specific fitness training sessions. Periodization is the systematic planning of fitness training. This book helps you solve the problem of organising the training loads in order to achieve the highest team performance possible at the different stages of a season. Within this book we provide fitness training which includes practices that develop all the attributes needed for an individual and a team, such as warm ups with and without the ball, conditioning, technical, tactical, competitive small sided games, attacking, defending, the transition from defence to attack and attack to defence. The fitness practices in this book are very creative and aim to replicate competitive matches, so the players get used to making quick decisions and solving problems that arise during competition. Fitness coaches need to have a profound knowledge of the game, as all the practices in a session have to come together in a common way of thinking related to the tactical organisation of the team. It may be possible that in the following years the term fitness coach will lose all its value and will simply be replaced by coach or assistant coach. |
football training program for youth: Triphasic Training Cal Dietz, Ben Peterson, 2012-06 What is Triphasic Training? It is the pinnacle of sports performance training. Created by world renown coach, Cal Dietz, Triphasic Training breaks down dynamic, athletic movements into their three components (eccentric, isometric, and concentric), and maximizes performance gains by applying stress to the athlete in a way that allows for the continuous development of strength, speed, and power. Who uses Triphasic Training: Everyone! From elite level athletes to absolute beginners, the triphasic method of training allows for maximal performance gains in minimal time. For that reason professional athletes from all backgrounds seek out Coach Dietz each off-season to train with his triphasic system. Coach Dietz has worked with hundreds of athletes from the NFL, NHL, and MLB, as well as several dozen Olympic athletes in track and field, swimming, and hockey. What the book is about: Triphasic Training was originally a digital book with over 3,000 hyperlinks and 6 hours of video lectures, showing the reader exactly how to perform every exercise and apply the training methods.

football training program for youth: Injury Prevention in Youth Football Players Hanna Lindblom, 2019-10-08 Background With 17–35% of all 14-year-olds in Sweden being active in football, injuries do occur, most frequently during match play. Based on knowledge of injury mechanisms and risk factors, different injury prevention exercise programmes (IPEPs) have been developed. In this thesis, the Swedish IPEP Knee Control was used as a model for injury preventive training. Aim The overall aim of this thesis was to improve our understanding of the effects of the Knee Control injury prevention exercise programme on sports performance and jump-landing technique, as well as exploring programme implementation and coach experiences of using the programme in youth football. Methods Studies I and IV were cluster-randomised trials focusing on the performance effects of Knee Control. Study I included four teams with 41 female youth football players (mean age 14). The intervention group used Knee Control twice weekly for 11 weeks, whereas the control group teams did their usual training. Knee Control includes six different exercises at four levels of difficulty and with partner exercises and is meant to be used during warm-up at every training session. Performance was tested using a battery of balance, agility, jump and sprint tests at baseline and follow-up at an indoor venue. Study IV had a similar set-up but included two different interventions: Knee Control and a new, further-developed version of the programme, Knee Control+, which were studied during an eight-week intervention involving eight youth football teams, four male, four female (mean age 14), with 77 players. Similar, but not identical, performance tests were used in Study IV, along with drop vertical jumps and tuck jump assessment to assess jump-landing technique. Studies II and III focused on the implementation context. Study II was questionnaire based, using the RE-AIM framework covering the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation and maintenance of Knee Control. Coaches for female youth teams (n=352), one representative of the national football association and representatives of eight district football associations responded to web-based questionnaires. Data collection was performed two years after the nation-wide implementation of Knee Control started. Study III was a qualitative study that followed up on the results of Study II. Interviews were conducted with 20 coaches for female football teams and analysed using qualitative content analysis. The interviews focused on factors that affected the adoption and use of Knee Control. All 20 coaches had experience of Knee Control. Results Limited positive effects were seen on jump-landing technique in girls, with the total tuck jump assessment score improving, as well as two separate criteria, the number of jumps accomplished during the 10-second test and additionally an increased knee-flexion angle upon landing from a drop vertical jump. No improvements on the performance tests were found in either Study I or Study IV. Both studies, however, suffered from low player compliance with the IPEPs and as a result low training dosage. No major differences in results were seen between Knee Control and Knee Control+ in Study IV. Study II showed that 91% of the responding coaches were familiar with Knee Control, they perceived the programme to be effective, 74% had started to use it, and it was fairly well maintained over time. However, only one third of the coaches used the programme every week and few used the whole programme. There were no formal policies for programme implementation and use in the district football associations and clubs. Study III showed that the coach was vital for programme use but needed social support, buy-in from players, resources and a feasible programme to facilitate programme adoption and use. When facing challenges with Knee Control implementation and use, the coaches did their best to work around these obstacles; for example, by modifying the programme content or dosage. Conclusions In conclusion, limited positive effects on jump-landing technique were seen in girls, potentially affecting risk factors for injury positively. No clinically meaningful effects from Knee Control or Knee Control+ were seen on performance tests as measured in the studies in either boys or girls. This may be related to the low training dosage. The high programme reach, perceived effectiveness, adoption and fairly high maintenance of Knee Control were positive. The modifications of programme content and/or dosage were concerning but will hopefully decrease with a more user-friendly programme. Bakgrund I och med att 17–35% av alla 14-åringar i Sverige är aktiva inom fotboll så uppkommer en del skador, oftast i samband med matcher. Utifrån kunskap om skadesituationer och riskfaktorer för skador har olika skadeförebyggande träningsprogram utvecklats. I denna avhandling användes det svenska skadeförebyggande programmet Knäkontroll som modell för skadepreventiv träning. Syfte Det övergripande syftet var att öka förståelsen för effekterna av Knäkontroll på prestationsförmåga och hopp-landningsteknik, programmets implementering och tränarnas erfarenheter av att använda programmet inom svensk ungdomsfotboll. Metod Studie I och Studie IV var klusterrandomiserade studier som undersökte effekterna på prestationsförmågan av att träna Knäkontroll. Studie I inkluderade 41 flickfotbollsspelare (genomsnittsålder 14 år). Interventionsgruppen använde Knäkontroll två gånger per vecka i 11 veckor, medan kontrollgruppen tränade som vanligt. Knäkontroll involverar sex olika övningar på fyra svårighetsgrader och med tillhörande parövningar och ska användas vid uppvärmningen inför varje fotbollsträning. Prestationsförmågan testades inomhus med ett batteri av olika tester för balans, snabbhet, hopp- och sprintförmåga vid baslinje och uppföljning. Studie IV hade ett likartat upplägg men inkluderade två olika interventioner: Knäkontroll och en vidareutvecklad version av programmet, Knäkontroll+. Studien pågick åtta veckor i åtta fotbollslag (fyra pojk-, fyra flicklag) med 77 spelare (genomsnittsålder 14 år). Liknande test för prestationsförmåga användes som i studie I, men även drop vertical jumps och tuck jumps för att bedöma hopp-landningsteknik. Studie II och Studie III fokuserade på implementeringskontexten, det vill säga implementeringen av Knäkontroll ute i fotbollslag. Studie II var en enkätstudie som med hjälp av ramverket RE-AIM (reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation and maintenance) utvärderade implementeringen av Knäkontroll. Tränare för flickfotbollslag (n=352), en representant för Svenska Fotbollförbundet och representanter för åtta distriktsförbund besvarade de webbaserade enkäterna. Datainsamlingen gjordes två år efter att den nationella implementeringen av Knäkontroll startade. Studie III var en kvalitativ studie som fördjupade resultaten av Studie II. Intervjuer genomfördes med tjugo tränare för flick- och damfotbollslag och analyserades med kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Intervjuerna fokuserade på faktorer som påverkade tränarnas upptag och användning av Knäkontroll. Alla tränare hade erfarenhet av Knäkontroll sedan tidigare. Resultat Begränsad positiv effekt sågs på hopp-landningsteknik bland flickorna i studie IV, med en förbättrad totalpoäng på tuck jumps, på två kriterier i tuck jump, ökat antal hopp under testets 10 sekunder samt en ökad knäflexionsvinkel vid landning från drop vertical jumps. Ingen förbättring av prestationsförmågan sågs i Studie I eller Studie IV. I båda studierna var spelarnas närvaro på fotbollsträningar låg, vilket även gav en låg träningsdos av Knäkontroll. Inga större skillnader i resultat sågs mellan Knäkontroll och Knäkontroll+ i Studie IV. Studie II visade att 91% av tränarna kände till Knäkontroll, att tränarna upplevde att programmet var effektivt, 74% hade också börjat använda programmet och användandet bibehölls också förhållandevis väl över tid. Däremot använde endast 1/3 av tränarna programmet varje vecka och få använde hela programmet. Det saknades riktlinjer för programmets implementering och användning inom distriktsförbund och klubbar. Studie III visade att tränaren var oumbärlig för programmets användning men behövde mer socialt stöd, intresse från spelarna och resurser utöver ett användarvänligt program för att underlätta det preventiva arbetet. När tränarna ställdes inför utmaningar gjorde de sitt bästa för att kringgå problemen, till exempel genom att modifiera programmets innehåll eller dosering, för att ändå kunna använda programmet. Konklusion Sammanfattningsvis sågs begränsade positiva effekter på hopplandningsteknik hos flickorna, vilket möjligen påverkar riskfaktorerna för skada positivt. Inga kliniskt meningsfulla effekter av Knäkontroll eller Knäkontroll+ sågs på prestationstesterna hos varken pojkar eller flickor. Detta kan vara relaterat till den låga träningsdosen. Knäkontrollprogrammets stora spridning, högt skattade effektivitet, höga upptag och förhållandevis goda bibehållande var positivt. De modifieringar av programmets innehåll och/eller dosering som sågs var oroväckande men kan förhoppningsvis minska av ett mer användarvänligt program. |
football training program for youth: The Perfect Pass S. C. Gwynne, 2016-09-20 An “excellent sports history” (Publishers Weekly) in the tradition of Michael Lewis’s Moneyball, award-winning historian S.C. Gwynne tells the incredible story of how two unknown coaches revolutionized American football at every level, from high school to the NFL. Hal Mumme spent fourteen mostly losing seasons coaching football before inventing a potent passing offense that would soon shock players, delight fans, and terrify opposing coaches. It all began at a tiny, overlooked college called Iowa Wesleyan, where Mumme was head coach and Mike Leach, a lawyer who had never played college football, was hired as his offensive line coach. In the cornfields of Iowa these two mad inventors, drawn together by a shared disregard for conventionalism and a love for Jimmy Buffett, began to engineer the purest, most extreme passing game in the 145-year history of football. Implementing their “Air Raid” offense, their teams—at Iowa Wesleyan and later at Valdosta State and the University of Kentucky—played blazingly fast—faster than any team ever had before, and they routinely beat teams with far more talented athletes. And Mumme and Leach did it all without even a playbook. “A superb treat for all gridiron fans” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review), The Perfect Pass S.C. Gwynne explores Mumme’s leading role in changing football from a run-dominated sport to a pass-dominated one, the game that tens of millions of Americans now watch every fall weekend. Whether you’re a casual or ravenous football fan, this is “a rousing tale of innovation” (Booklist), and “Gwynne’s book ably relates the story of that innovation and the successes of the man who devised it” (New York Journal of Books). |

football training program for youth: Coaching Psychological Skills in Youth Football Chris Harwood, Richard Anderson, 2015-03-04 Successful footballers are typically those who are best able to regulate their emotions, fix their attention, utilise effective interpersonal skills, and remain highly motivated and self-assured in the face of consistent challenges. These behaviours are the hallmark of mentally tough, emotionally intelligent players, and can be grouped under the 5Cs of: Commitment, Communication, Concentration, Control, and Confidence. The 5Cs, however, are rarely innate - they are a product of a player's long-term psycho-social development and, crucially, they can be coached and nurtured. The aim of the 5Cs program, in this book, is to show coaches how to develop these important psycho-social skills and help young players to understand how they can truly achieve their potential. Written specifically for soccer coaches of all levels, Coaching Psychological Skills in Youth Football details each C in a methodical and practical manner with real-world exercises for training and matches. The book is relevant to soccer coaches working with 5-16 year-old players, with individual techniques and practices marked for appropriate age groups. By weaving these techniques into their normal coaching practice, coaches will help educate young players to optimise their motivation, discipline, composure, self-belief and teamwork. A complete 12 month development plan is included alongside a case study from a youth coach who has actually experienced the 5C journey. Coaching Psychological Skills in Youth Football will build your confidence as a coach as you learn how to grow and apply a world-class knowledge of sport psychology in youth football. |

football training program for youth: Developing Agility and Quickness NSCA -National Strength & Conditioning Association, Jay Dawes, Mark Roozen, 2011-10-10 The ball handler who fakes and then drives past a defender for an easy score. A pass rusher who leaves a would-be blocker in his wake on the way to sacking the quarterback. A setter who manages to maneuver both body and ball in the blink of an eye to make the perfect pass for the kill and match-winning point. These are all reasons agility and quickness are such prized physical attributes in modern sport. Efforts to become markedly quicker or more agile, however, aren’t always successful. Genetic limitations, technical deficiencies, and inferior training activities are among the major obstacles. Developing Agility and Quickness helps athletes blow past those barriers thanks to the top sport conditioning authority in the world, the National Strength and Conditioning Association. NSCA hand-picked its top experts to present the best training advice, drills, and programs for optimizing athletes’ linear and lateral movements.

football training program for youth: The Barbell Prescription Jonathon Sullivan, Andy Baker, 2016-12-01 The Barbell Prescription: Strength Training for Life After 40 directly addresses the most pervasive problem faced by aging humans: the loss of physical strength and all its associated problems - the loss of muscle mass, bone mineral loss and osteoporosis, hip fractures (a terminal event for many older people), loss of balance and coordination, diabetes, heart disease related to a sedentary lifestyle, and the loss of independence. The worst advice an older person ever gets is, Take it easy. Easy makes you soft, and soft makes you dead. The Barbell Prescription maps an escape from the usual fate of older adults: a logical, programmed approach to the hard work necessary to win at the extreme sport of Aging Well. Unlike all other books on the subject of exercise for seniors, The Barbell Prescription challenges the motivated Athlete of Aging with a no-nonsense training approach to strength and health - and demonstrates that everybody can become significantly stronger using the most effective tools ever developed for the job. |
