Browse Soccer Drills for Under 13, Under 14, Under 15, and U16 Soccer Coaches.
When coaching Under 13, Under 14, Under 15, Under 16, and High School level players, expect them to be able to perform a range of skills. Popularity and self-esteem coupled with early or late stages of puberty sometimes produce an "all-knowing" attitude. Because of these self-critical thoughts and physical changes, it's often on the coach to challenge, motivate, and involve players.
Training sessions should be between one and a half hour and two hours. Warm-up is critical at this age as muscle, ligament, and skeletal changes are occurring. Introduce competitive team activities of six to eight people to start focusing on the more extensive set of tactics. Work in these small-sided groups and keep the training sessions competitive, challenging, and everyone involved.

Medium
The first three seconds after a turnover are the most important moments in any game. This drill puts your players right in the middle of that chaos and trains them to handle it. When a team wins the ball, the clock starts. They have three seconds to complete three passes or attack a target gate. That pressure forces fast thinking, quick movement, and clear communication. On the flip side, the team that just lost possession has to react just as fast. No standing still. No watching. They need to press, close space, and get compact before the other team can hurt them. This is a game-like drill that builds real habits. Players stop drifting and start making sharp, confident decisions at the exact moment it matters most. Run it often and you will see those habits show up on match day.
