I Want This Training Pack
Complete pack with 40 soccer tactical exercises on build-up play (first phase), organized in a pedagogical progression — Basic, Elementary, Intermediate and Specialization — so you can match the demand to your squad's level and the moment of the season. Each exercise includes an animated tactical diagram (step-by-step movement sequence), coaching points, observation cues and objective success criteria. Covers playing out from the goalkeeper and the back line: safe circulation, support triangles, 2- and 3-player build-ups, links to the central midfielders and beating the opponent's first line of pressure. Ideal for coaches who want to save planning hours and have ready, tested sessions on build-up play, without designing exercises from scratch.

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 (unopposed build-up) to the most demanding (build-up under full pressure, 7v5 and 8v5). 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 → Football → 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.
