When players go into the academy phase the amount of trainings increases. More team-based video analysis becomes available. The pace of development is faster at this age due to the physical and mental growth. Players start to specialize more by using video analysis on a more detailed level. This is a critical time in the development of the players. Players need to learn mental toughness and self-confidence.
The loads should increase and the awareness of tactical skills within the game becomes more important during the learning process. Players at this age are more self-critical and can be rebellious but have a strong commitment to their team.
Our coaches in this age group require more tactical knowledge and understanding about the game in order to deliver their sessions to ensure the environment is challenging for our players.
They need to connect with the players well to make sure the vital skills can be learned by players through a strong connection between coach, player and teammates.
