Even adults need to have fun while they’re training. Orlando City FC’s soccer volleyball challenge accomplishes that while still keeping the practice competitive and allowing players to practice their soccer skills.

Here is a great video with some simple techniques (and even a practice game) for practicing headers.

Flying Changes is a fast pace practice game that helps players train their many aspects including dribbling, shooting, attacking, defending, and endurance as well.

Here is how the Chelsea Youth Academy teaches its young players transition attacking through midfield. In my opinion, this practice game should be suitable for U11 up.
