Each 3 hour session
will consist of a Lecture presentation providing key principles regarding the holistic development of
female soccer players, including information on athletic development, technical practice and tactical
education and how this relates to the overall development of a ‘team mentality’.
An on-field
practical session will then follow demonstrating some of the principles discussed and specific exercises
used to enhance the athletic, technical, and game awareness skills of youth players.
Presenting
coaches will be available for Q and A on the session afterwards in the lecture room.
