How to use this pack
Quick-start guide: the 40 exercises are organized in 4 blocks of 10 (Basic → Elementary → Intermediate → Specialization), from the simplest (small-sided game without structured opposition) to the most demanding (full small-sided game in a competitive context). Use the animated diagram to present the idea to your team in seconds, apply the coaching points while explaining it, watch for the observation cues during execution, and use the success criteria to know when the exercise has been mastered. Every exercise also includes adaptation suggestions to make the task easier or harder without leaving the same game principle. HOW TO IMPORT INTO THE PLATFORM: after purchase, open the Tactical Board (Tools → Futsal → Tactical Board), click "Import" in the tool's bottom bar and select the .json file included in the pack. All 40 exercises load straight into your library, ready to edit, present to your team or export as image, video or PDF.
