HAPPY NEW YEAR PLAYERS!!!!
I am very excited to start the new season with you, and I’m also seriously preparing to make you showcase all the new things you have learnt last year. After the 16 weeks of hard work in the Fall Season we are heading to the 20 weeks long Spring Season, which is always my favorite part. I love the Spring Season because this is usually the time when my players’ hard work comes to fruition, and we play our most memorable games, score our most memorable goals.
All the new things you have done, like speed training; learning how to switch the point of attack; steal the ball with low press/high press; strengthening; uphill runs and inside foot finish will complete your new style and make you enjoy your game even more.
I am sure you will have your best games and memorable moments coming now!!! ;-)
HOMEWORK
Part of our preparation for the Spring season is to learn from the VEO Game recordings. I have already asked you to watch your games full after each event. Now you have a fun homework regarding your games.
The exercises are the following:
Choose two quarters from two of your games. (e.g. one quarter from the Dolphin Stadium game and one from the Miami Classic.)
count your successful passes; finishes that you completed during those two quarters.
count your ball losses (e.g. unsuccessful passes; stealing the ball and immediately loosing it; clearing up that goes to the opponent; dribbling and losing the ball)
count how many times you stole the ball
Download one 5-20sec clip that reminds you to one of the exercises that we repeatedly do on the practices.
Download two 5-20sec clips of your favorite moments of the season (e.g. biggest tackle; best goal; favorite dribble).
The ten best clips will be shared on AC Miami social media.

Hurry up!
Deadline for 2 and 3 tasks is Saturday, January 7th. And the deadline for 1. is January 10th. Tuesday.
Best regards,
Coach Gábor
