What is the Grassroots Training Supplement?
The Grassroots Training Supplemental Football Program has been created to offer young footballers the best of both worlds.
​
Most young footballers practice technique on the training pitch, dribbling around cones, passing the ball etc.. this is great for repetition and confidence, but this doesn't help the player understand the why, when, how, what and where, that comes from understanding the game.
​
This often leads to players who are good technically but lack true understanding of the game.
To add to this, young players don't get Positioning, Tactical or Strategy guidance in the grassroots game until they are often in their early teens, this means that a significant portion of young footballers don't have a full understanding of why they play the formation, the tactics or sometimes even what the coach wants them to do.
The GTS football program works with these young footballers, supporting the physical on pitch work, a and also provides the student with a deeper understanding of the why, what, when and how. When do I go forward? When should I release the ball? How can I defend better? Why does the 442 formation offer balance? We analyse and study all aspects of the game and help the student become a better all round player whilst improving their in game intelligence.
