OVERVIEW

Emphasis continues to be on individual player development but now introducing slightly larger group tactics such as 4v3, 4v4 and 5v5.

• Training becomes more challenging and combining with teammates is strongly encouraged as well as working in the lines such as midfield etc
• There will also be heavy emphasis to the "tactical" side where players will learn positions, in-game moments, and what it takes to be part of a team
