Initial Stage Breakdown (U6 – U7)
​
Young players from ages 6 to 7 love to play. All practices should be based on fun games! Individual and collective games are essential for the player at this age to experiment with the ball.
Players must spend the maximum time possible in contact with the ball and experiment by themselves. Basic motor skills like walking, running or jumping have to be combined with ball handling and ball control.
​
For the first time, the player builds a relationship with other players. We give different responsibilities to the players in order to develop teamwork skills.
