ICA Drills for Skills

This is a great practice to develop finishing and defending skills using
a large group of players.

ICA Coaching Points:
Use half field, three goals and three
teams. White team defends, yellow, blue attack. Practice starts with a
yellow and blue player at the center cones. Next player in line passes to
them. When they receive the ball they must quickly attack one of the three goals. White team sends out one defender to defender the goal.
When a team scores the opposing team now defends and the white team comes onto the field as attackers.
Team to win three straight games
are champions. Advance to 2 v 2.

The player starts by lying prone near the first bottom-corner cone. He gets up and sprints to the closest top-corner cone, goes around it, weaves back around the middle cones, sprints to the other top-corner cone, turns around the corner, and sprints to the finish.

This tests the ability to change direction and control the center of gravity. It also indicates body awareness, body control, and footwork. A deficiency here indicates a lack of functional core strength, leg strength, and bilateral development. A score under 15 seconds is considered good.

    I'm Just Saying......

Now I can't make you do it. You've got to look at the guy next to you, look into his eyes. Now I think you're gonna see a guy who will go that inch with you. You're gonna see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team, because he knows when it comes down to it, you're gonna do the same for him.

That's a team, gentlemen. And either we heal, now, as a team, or we will die, as individuals. That's football, guys. That's all it is. Now, what are you going to do?  Al Pacino, from the movie Any Given Sunday.
