Attackers score goals, defense wins championships.  There is a lot of truth in this old adage.  Solid individual and team defending is an important part of any successful soccer team.  Use the Art of Defending Skillzys® to educate your players on proper defensive concepts and recognize the often unsung defensive heroes on every team when proper techniques and concepts are demonstrated in the heat of a competitive soccer match. 

The ability to serve a ball properly is essential if players want to compete at the higher levels of the game.  This skill must be taught early and often in order to build the proper technique and muscle memory; aspects that become difficult to impart later in life once poor technical habits are well ingrained. 

Your team has just won possession of the ball.  Now what?  Though this is dependent on a number of factors, each coach/team has it's preferred style of play.  Do you bypass your midfielders with a long ball from the back, or do you look to play through those players?  Do you prefer to try and exploit space up the flanks with speedy wide players, or is a more central, quick-passing attack favored?  Do you look to change the point of the attack in midfield or seek penetrating balls into the forwards' feet?

Whatever your prefered build up style is, coaches can use Skillzys® to help focus players on this important part of the game.

Nothing can compare to individual flare and creativity with the ball on a soccer field...nothing, that is, except for pinpoint inter-passing and precise, coordinated movements between teammates that leave defenses confused, exposed, and picking the ball out of their own net.

Crossing in vitally important in soccer, but an area in which many youth players struggle.  It takes hours of practice to be able to serve a ball accurately from a wide position, and more hours still in order to do this under pressure.

Use Goal Scoring Skillzys® to recognize players' ability to put the ball in the back of the net. 

The goalkeeper, though arguably the most important position on the field, is on that is often over-looked in terms of training and development at the younger age groups.  Moreover, it is many times difficult to find young players who want to play in goal as keepers are rarely recognized when successful technique is demonstrated and many times blamed for goals they allow.
