A coach explains how female soccer players at ID camps can stand out during drills by understanding what they're doing and using the right language. Grasping the drill's purpose lets you ask for the ball confidently, say things like "man on," and look coachable to recruiters.
stand out at an ID camp as a women's soccer player during the passing drill. Right now this coach is asking them, hey, did you guys understand the drill? And it was a little confusing to understand. I know personally that I also really struggled. Like, if it was a complicated passing drill, I always struggled just getting to the right location. And me personally, I'm not— I didn't usually understand how it was related to the game if I'm just running around to different places. I had to memorize where I'm going. However, the The sooner you understand the drill, the sooner you're going to be more comfortable asking for the ball, the sooner you're going to be more comfortable using names, saying man on and turn, and the sooner you understand the drill shows the coaches you are listening. So if it is a semi-complicated exercise, the sooner you can learn it, the way faster you're likely to get recruited because they're like, oh, this person understands the process. And that's what I recommend during the passing drill.
