[For 3rd to 6th Grade Elementary Students] Individual Tactics & Skill Up Camp
The "Individual Tactics & Skill Up Camp" was held over two days, Saturday and Sunday, June 20 and 21, at Fukagawa Ground.
This time, we conducted a total of six sessions including lectures, and held both the Field Player (FP) course and the Goalkeeper (GK) course simultaneously.In an environment with specialized goalkeepers, training was conducted aiming to improve the level for each position.
The theme this time was "Perception" and "Attacking and Defending in Front of the Goal and on the Sides."
In soccer, skills such as shooting, dribbling, and passing are of course important, but the ability to judge "when, where, and how to use those skills" is also necessary.
Therefore, this time, by combining lectures and practical exercises, we organized what to look at, how to judge, and how to execute during play.
Even in situations during practice or matches where someone asks, "Did you see that just now?",if you do not understand "what," "when," and "how" to look, it is not easy to apply it effectively in actual play.
In the lecture, we reviewed the key points of "what," "when," and "how" to observe, and then consciously practiced these on the field.
During training, there were also moments when players responded to coaches' questions by applying the key points learned in the lecture.
It was impressive to see the children organizing what they had learned in their minds and trying to connect it to their play.
On the second day, we reviewed the key points about "attacking and defending in front of the goal" and "attacking and defending on the sides" while watching videos.
After organizing what the player with the ball aims for and how the players without the ball should be involved, we proceeded with training on the field.
By playing with awareness of what should be done in each area, the matches featured many dynamic moments such as powerful plays approaching the goal and breakthroughs from the sides.
During the focused two-day period, the children engaged with new friends and motivated each other as they worked on their training.
Let’s keep in mind what we learned this time during our daily practice and matches, and connect it to even higher-quality play!
