Soccer positions
Train for your position
What each position demands, how we train it, and drills your player can do at home.
Goalkeeper
Goalkeeper training
Goalkeepers need a different session from field players: ready stance, clean handling, footwork across the goal, diving technique, distribution and the confidence to command the box. Small technical fixes add up to a lot more saves.
Center back
Center back training
Center backs win the ball, protect the space behind and start the attack. The best youth defenders combine body shape, timing and calm passing under pressure.
Fullback / wingback
Fullback & wingback training
Fullbacks and wingbacks defend 1v1 out wide, then overlap and deliver crosses. They need fitness, repeat sprints, and crossing with both feet.
Defensive midfielder
Defensive midfielder training
The No. 6 screens the back line and keeps the team ticking. Scanning, positioning and quick, simple passing matter more than flashy moves.
Central / attacking midfielder
Central & attacking midfielder training
Central and attacking midfielders find pockets, turn and create. They need a quick first touch, vision, and the confidence to shoot from distance.
Winger
Winger training
Wingers beat defenders 1v1, stretch the field and create or score. Speed with the ball, a weak foot and end product separate good wingers from great ones.
Striker / forward
Striker & forward training
Strikers live on finishing, movement and holding the ball up. Most goals are one or two touches, so the details of the first touch and the strike matter most.
