Nani Getting Back - Endurance. Code Red: a pre-season with Manchester Un...

Another great training tool for coaches to do fitness with the ball. Coaches, stop sending your teams to tracks or running long distance! Improve their fitness and technique in the same drills.

Nike Code Red - Nani, getting back quickness

Great drill for kids to try develops freedom of thought reactions and quickness. if you don't have that many balls (which I am sure most kids dont) use other obstacles cones, rocks, pinnies, etc

Hope Is A Game Changer

well looks like another project we at Center CIrcle are going to have to get behind...

Just incase you have been living under a rock...

Spain won the world cup, pictured above is Liverpool player Fernando Torres celebrating with his Spain teammates wearing a Liverpool scarf. Hands off Chelsea looks like he has made his intentions known.

I have been telling everyone I thought Spain would win for probably over two years now and it feels so good to see it come to fruition. I visited Spain in 08 and it is a brilliant country and I think the way they have changed and constructed an incredible youth set up has led to the two most famous victories in the countries history (Euro 08 and World Cup 2010). Proof that technique and beautiful football does win out. It is also great encouragement for myself as a coach that what I am teaching and trying to install and evolve here in America is the right path. Viva Espana
