GETTING READY FOR THE SEASON
Panthers:
The following provides my recommendations for a summer training program that will prepare you to make
the high school team and that will also help you avoid injuries in the fall. You should start this program no
later than 5 weeks prior to the start of tryouts. In addition to this program you should be playing at least
three times a week in pickup games. Note that this program will improve your:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Technical skills (dribbling, controlling, passing, shooting)
Short distance speed with and without the ball
Upper and lower body power and coordination
Aerobic condition so you can perform well on the two mile test that is a staple of many high school
soccer programs (or the beeptest!)
An important benefit of the program is to improve your strength and flexibility so you can enjoy an injury
free season this fall.
Warmup - Perform this before every session
1. 5 Minutes dribbling - Dribble in 5 yard by 5 yard space with training partner(s) and perform:
1. Inside of the foot cuts
2. Outside of the foot cuts
3. Pull back turns
4. Step on turns
5. Step over turns
6. Cruyff turns
Remember to explode into space after each turn
Stretch
2. Sprinting form warmup
1. Butt kickers 20 yards out and back
2. Jog 10 yards, quick feet 10 yards out and back
3. Knee highs 20 yards out and back
Stretch
3. 5 minutes controlling - Juggle ball 5 to 10 times and kick 10 feet in air. Control ball into space with:
1. Inside of foot
2. Outside of foot
3. Chest
4. Head
5. Thigh
Stretch
4. 5 minutes short passing against rebound surface:
1. 25 inside of foot passes switching from left to right
2. 25 control ball across body with inside of one foot, pass to rebound surface with inside of other
foot
3. 25 control into space with outside of foot, pass to rebound surface with inside of same foot
4. 25 instep passes from 15 yards switching feet
5. 25 outside of foot passes against rebound surface switching feet
6. If you have access to two rebounding surfaces - 25 pass against rebound surface, spin turn, turn
ball, pass against rebound surface (midfielders/forwards should spend a great deal of time on
this so they can perform it with speed with both feet)
Stretch
Monday, Wednesday, Friday - Focus on Speed Training
1. Overspeed training - This will get you to be faster as a player. Perform this all
days after the warm up.
Find a slight hill that declines 3 feet over 100 feet. Note that it is not good to train on a steeper hill.
Run down the hill for 40 yards as fast as you can while retaining good sprinting form. Repetitions
should be as follows:
1. 4 reps five weeks prior to the start of the season – Rest 30 seconds between reps. You are trying
to improve your top speed so you need to be completely recovered between each downhill sprint.
2. 5 reps four weeks prior to the start of the season – Rest 30 seconds between reps.
3. 6 reps three weeks prior to the start of the season. – Rest 30 seconds between reps.
4. 7 reps two weeks prior to the start of the season – Rest 30 seconds between reps.
5. 8 reps one week prior to the start of the season – Rest 30 seconds between reps.
Your high school tryouts will start the week of 17 August. I suggest you continue to perform 8 down
hill sprints prior to the start of your high school tryout/practice sessions.
2. Shooting off the Dribble
Sprint 30 yards with ball and shoot at goal from 18 yards out. Collect ball and dribble back to starting
point. Repetitions should be as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
4 reps five weeks prior to the start of the season
5 reps four weeks prior to the start of the season
6 reps three weeks prior to the start of the season.
7 reps two weeks prior to the start of the season
8 reps one week prior to the start of the season
Remember to shoot with both your left foot and your right foot. Also try shooting with the outside of
both feet.
3. Strength Training in a Circuit
Perform three sets of the following exercises. Increase repetitions each week as indicated in the
brackets.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
Pushups [Week Five=10, Four=12, Three=14, Two=18, One=20]
Dips on a bench [Week Five=10, Four=12, Three=14, Two=18, One=20]
Crunches [Week Five=30, Four=35, Three=40, Two=40, One=40]
Bent knee situp [Week Five=15, Four=20, Three=25, Two=25, One=25]
Knee to chest [Week Five=15, Four=20, Three=25, Two=25, One=25]
Superman [hold for 30 seconds]
Half squats [Week Five=12, Four=14, Three=16, Two=18, One=20]
Lunges [20 yards out and back]
Ballistic strength training as an alternative:
If you have a training partner and a medicine ball you can replace the exercises above with three sets
of the following. Note that if you don’t have a partner you can perform these bounce the ball off of a
wall:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Underhand throw [Week five=5, four=7, three=10, two=10, one=10]
Overhead throw [Week five=5, four=7, three=10, two=10, one=10]
Side throw [Week five=5, four=7, three=10, two=10, one=10]
Push pass [Week five=5, four=7, three=10, two=10, one=10]
Partner bent knee situps [Week Five=10, Four=15, Three=20, Two=25, One=25]
Remember to use a medicine ball that is not too heavy! Partners should catch the underhand,
side, and push throws. Let the overhead throw hit the ground.
Tuesday, Thursday - Focus on Power and Aerobics
1. Overspeed training - See Monday, Wednesday, Friday schedule for details
2. Measure Soccer Fitness – Run the Beep Test Every Monday
I have provided you with a copy of the Beep Test. You should run this test the first week and then try
to improve you score by two levels by the start of tryouts. The following are standards to shoot for:
1. Forwards – minimum score by start of tryouts should be to the start of level 11
2. Midfielders and outside defenders – minimum score should be to the start of level 12
3. Central defenders – minimum score should be to the start of level 11
3. Sport loading - Develops more powerful starts
1. 20 step uphill sprints. Repetitions should be as follows:
1. 6 reps five weeks prior to the start of the season
2. 7 reps four weeks prior to the start of the season
3. 8 reps three weeks prior to the start of the season.
4. 9 reps two weeks prior to the start of the season
5. 10 reps one week prior to the start of the season
Note that uphill sprints improve the strength of you quadriceps.
2. 10 step uphill backward sprints. Do this up a grassy hill that has a 10 degree slope. Repetitions
should be as follows:
1. 6 reps five weeks prior to the start of the season
2. 7 reps four weeks prior to the start of the season
3. 8 reps three weeks prior to the start of the season.
4. 9 reps two weeks prior to the start of the season
5. 10 reps one week prior to the start of the season
Note that uphill backward sprinting improves the strength of your hamstrings.
4. Plyometrics - Develops coordination, jumping ability, and ability to explosively
change directions
Perform three sets of the following exercises:
1. Side to side hops over a soccer ball or cone [Week five=10, four=15, three=15, two=15, one=15]
2. Long hop followed by 90 degree change in direction and 10 yard sprint [Week Five=5, Four=7,
Three=10, Two=10, 12 One=10]
3. 6 180 degree jumps from cone to cone
4. Weighted jump rope hops [Week Five=25, Four=25, Three=30, Two=35, One=50]
5. Weighted jump rope side to side hops [Week Five=25, Four=25, Three=30, Two=35, One=50]
5. Aerobics - Medium speed distance running - Important for some high school
coaches
Note that many high school coaches use the 2 mile run as a basic measure of fitness during the first
week of tryouts. The following schedule will get you in good shape to perform well in this test. Adjust the
time during the week one to match the standard of your high school team.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Week five - 1 mile < 8 minutes, ball work 4 minutes, 1 mile < 8 minutes
Week four - 1 mile < 7:30 minutes, ball work 4 minutes, 1 mile < 7:30 minutes
Week three - 1 mile < 7:15 minutes, ball work 4 minutes, 1 mile < 7:15 minutes
Week two - 1 mile < 7:00 minutes, ball work 4 minutes, 1 mile < 7:00 minutes
Week one - 2 miles < 14 minutes. Adjust this time based on the standard of your high school
