25 Small-Sided Games

with Jason Vittrup,
U.S. Soccer, "A" License, Graduate of the Brazilian Football Academy

In the US, considerable amounts of practice time are devoted to neatly organized exercises and skills improvement, but what is really needed is more attention to the development of "soccer smartness;" i.e., players who have mastered the short, long, and wide "traffic" rules become good players. Vittrup's video presents 25 small-sided games, utilizing activities of 4 v 4 or greater, that are diagrammed, narrated, and then demonstrated. These games will advance your players' ability to perform, as there are lots of touches, repetition, and competition. Excellent instruction!
