Soccer drills are the backbone of all training sessions. If the soccer drills are not suitable for your players then your training methods cannot be effective. Kids exposed to hard or advanced training drills will inevitably lose interest and motivation. Also the enjoyment levels and fun will diminish creating a platform of self doubt that will lead to most players quitting the game.

When confronted with a lazy team or disruptive players, the best solution is often overlooked. Most coaches, especially the inexperienced ones will employ yelling and screaming in order to maintain some sort of discipline. This has many adverse effects like crushing self esteem and confidence. An abusive coach also creates a hostile environment where kids cannot play freely. Training no longer is fun and the enjoyment of Soccer vanishes. Once you eliminate fun from the equation, the kids become lazy and no longer want to be a part of the team. They also lose motivation and shy away from any other sports because they have been conditioned to fear the sport.

Motivation and fun go hand in hand. So create training drills that are fun, it's not rocket science. Children concentrate for around 2 minutes, so keep the players active at all times. This can be done by

1-Increasing the pace and intensity of the training session.
2-Making every drill a competition so that the kids can compete and have fun at the same time.
3-Teach and develop your team through games rather than preaching to them like they do in school.
4-Break down exercises into greater numbers of groups with fewer players so that the action/ rest ratio is increased.

By keeping all players active and competing, you eliminate disruptive behaviour and create an urgency for kids to train at the best of their abilities. Competition amongst players and team mates is a great way to energise any team.
