Product Description

Review
"I really enjoy the books by Jens Bangsbo and Birger Peitersen. They contain the right level of discussion, examples, and practical drills; and are easy to follow and refer to when developing training sessions. They are my books of choice and I recommend them to others who are interested in learning about the game and coaching young players. They have helped me immensely."

3.0 out of 5 stars Not great, not bad, 27 May 2007
No doubting the knowledge and experience of the authors this is a good book with some good ideas about getting your team defending well as individuals and as a unit.
Some of the drills seem over eloborate though, too complicated rather than focusing on basics that relate to the game. Some stuff seems difficult to relate to a game situation and after all if it does not relate to a game situation then ultimately it will leave players confused.
However it did give me some good ideas for warm ups and progressions that could lead into some functional practices or phases of play.
Important to understand which players could benefit from this book, not youngsters, only 14 and upwards will benefit from the practices.
