This week was the first week back after a several week break. Unfortunately, due to other commitments and the fact we had not found a coach for the younger group yet, we had to cancel the youngest group. With a full database of emails and an active social media presence, this was thankfully very easy to do.
The second group ran as smoothly as it had done previously, again with lots of focus on ball manipulation and skills. This week, we split Year 2 and Year 3 children up, with Gavin giving the older group a more challenging session, trying to focus more on possession to see how they would cope with it. I took the younger group, focusing more on 1v1’s and more ball manipulation in order to improve their confidence on the ball. Splitting the group was a great success, and meant we could put on a more ability appropriate session for each child.
