    I am coaching U8's for the first time this year and I tend to agree with many comments. This is way above most of my player's skill level and honestly should be for more U10-12's. Some of my U8's can't even dribble or pass, so this is WAY beyond them!

    Some really great ideas here, my only concern is that none of them involve a goalie. My U8 team needs a rotating keeper, so no one is specialized. They all need to get practice in net or we'll ship a ton of goals when actually playing! 😂 Just my own two cents..

  • @artaviagirl5380

    I see how this could work with U10 and up, not U8. These kids don’t know to come up with strategies and game plans yet.

      That's why you give them these drills - to nudge them to develop that skill. You'd be surprised how crafty young ones can be when given a reason.

    • @Kerre85
      @Kerre85 2 года назад +7

      Agree with Mike. In the beginning it will look messy, but you’ll see big progress very fast. Those little ones pick up new exercises and drills at an insane pace.

      100% agree, these rules are much too advanced, basic skill level much too high for U8s, remembering under 8s range from 6 to 7 for the most part.

      Hey James! While we didn't film every drill in our library (100+ drills) with every age group that a drill is applicable to, doesn't mean it's not recommended for U8 age groups. In fact, all of our recommendations are from experts at United Soccer Coaches, US Youth Soccer, and, for our FC Barcelona drills, FC Barcelona youth development experts. And none of the players in any video we have created are teenagers - we promise!
      At the end of the day, you're the coach and you know your team best, so if these are too advanced for your team, you can check out our full library in the MOJO app. It's free: get.mojo.sport/youtube

      Hey Amanda! While we didn't film every drill in our library (100+ drills!) with every age group, we use experts from United Soccer Coaches, MLS, US Youth Soccer, and FC Barcelona to determine what age groups a drill is applicable for. At the end of the day -- you know your team best so if some of these are too advanced that's OK! There are more drills for free in the MOJO app that you can try, too.
      Also -- in the MOJO app for each drill we provide details on what is likely to go right and wrong with different age groups doing each drill, as well as how to make it easier. The app is free to use with your team: get.mojo.sport/youtube

      What is the time frame to get these drills working so that progress is happening? Are we taking 2 to 3 sessions or more like 10-15, I'm guessing the latter. My kids are good but red light - green light is a struggle at times...
