This 103 page eBook explores one touch training and movement off the ball and includes 90 pages of drills that you can do with your team. Table of contents is below.One Touch Training: Teaches the player WHEN to play one touch; and when NOT to play one touch. We are teaching players to have a ONE TOUCH MENTALITY. A One touch mentality teaches players to recognize the best options; and therefore make the best DECISIONS; BEFORE and in ADVANCE of receiving the ball. Movement OFF the ball: This mentality conditions the mind of players OFF the ball to position and move to help the player who is receiving the ball. This means we want players to always; at every moment; THINK: "I only have One touch"; therefore this will force players to always do what I call the "LOOK and THINK" before they receive the ball to see several options and pick out their best option, which may actually be to DRIBBLE!!When you use these training sessions consistently you will see the development of that relationship between having a ONE TOUCH mentality and Movement OFF the ball.So in a nutshell:LOOK (before receiving the ball);MOVE (find space off the ball based on positioning of teammates and opponents):THINK (what is my best option?):EXECUTE (the Decision; or the SKILL Factor).

The Soccer eyeQ methodology is a proven and successful coaching method to increase scanning and improve game awareness, to provide your players with the tools to make better decisions. Pep Guardiola: "Taking the right decision in the right moment. That is the most difficult thing in football." You will learn how to train scanning and game awareness through innovative training practices. Your players (and team) will take in information quicker, create a picture of what's around them, create an essential habit, and greatly enhance their decision making skills. Too many players focus intently on the ball, control it, and only then look up to see the options. The Soccer eyeQ practices use simple constraints which force players to scan more frequently and read the game situation. With the "picture" created, your players will be quicker, sharper, and make better decisions in all situations. The top players in the world scan the most and this is your chance to develop your players and improve their game awareness to scan like the best; De Bruyne, Mbappe, De Jong, Xavi, Fabregas, Iniesta, Henry, Lampard, and Gerrard. Xavi: "Think quickly, look for spaces. That's what I do: look for spaces. All day. I'm always looking. All day, all day." The Soccer eyeQ methods can be easily added into your training sessions to increase scanning, making players faster and more effective in training and matches. See More - Think Quicker - Play Better!
