Soccer Skills vs. Soccer Drills
There is a big difference between soccer drills and soccer fundamental skills. Soccer coaches who simply have their team work on soccer passing drills or soccer shooting drills without fully ensuring that their players have their fundamentals down cold are running the risk of grooving in bad habits with these individual soccer drills.
It is essential that you learn soccer skills at the basic level before attempting any drill regimens. But the truth is that most coaches don’t have the resources to teach the many fundamentals necessary to each player. That’s why players and/or parents should get a high quality training program themselves that teaches the fundamentals. My recommendation is the DVD series at SoccerU.com.
