Course reviews

Really simple effective drill, looking forward to running with our girls.

Great Britain & Northern Ireland

Once again you’ve shown me something new that I can add to my coaching ‘toolkit’ and it is so well explained and modelled. Well done.

Canada

Really helped me understand what I am seeing when I watch the game now.

USA

Superb game. Really like the transition from skill development into competitive situation with plenty of thinking and problem solving for the players. An excellent practice that I will certainly be using.

England

Perhaps giving the players opportunities to develop their A and D for themselves.

Great Britain & Northern Ireland

Very good game, atention defence, quick reposition

Argentina

I like the Chaos game in particular. It identifies weaknesses but allows players to train and thrive in Chaos.

USA

What a great exercise, always looking for fun games to promote thinking with the ball and without the ball. Awesome!

Netherlands

Great game!!! Way to set a drill-game-drill dynamic, working on technique and game sense
