Movement variability in soccer training is the new approach to enhance practice that develops players' movement adaptabilities and creative play on the field. Movement Variability in Soccer Training bridges the gap between theory and practice. In the first section of the book, the reader will understand the background theory and scientific evidence supporting movement variability. This section covers the short- and mid-term effects of adopting movement variability training as it relates to players' technical, tactical, and creative development. In the following section, the reader will be given 100 training drills--practical examples for implementing variability during training based on that session's goals, such as individual, group, or team development. In the final section, the reader will learn how to incorporate periodization training during each training micro cycle. By addressing all aspects of performance, this book is an essential reference for every soccer trainer, coach, or player.
