Download or read book Using The Rondo Effectively written by Thefootball Coach and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2021-03-05 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade the use of the rondo has spiraled in football throughout the world. However, has the rondo been effectively understood and used by coaches? We will look to provide detail on how the rondo can be used and how coaches might not be getting the most out of their rondo practices? How many coaches observe players playing in a circle format around a ball, just aimlessly passing the ball for hours? Could the rondo be better linked to our game model and playing philosophy. Could we teach our players position specific information whilst they are exposed to the technical demands that a rondo puts on to our players. This book will look to provide that information with the inclusion of many position specific and formation specific rondos. This will give coaches individual coaching information to players, dependent on their formation. This will help create more specific and meaningful training for players, where they are actually training their game model and they will then be able to transfer the training task into games with confidence.
Download or read book The Science of Rondo written by Marcus A. Dibernardo and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rondos develop a player's speed of thought, speed of play, individual and collective ball retention capabilities, footwork, agility, soccer problem solving skills, team work and ability to create a rhythm or tempo of play. These are essential and critical skills in the game of soccer. Watch a full 11v11 game and see how many touches each player gets. Research indicates players will touch the ball 20-40 times in the course of a 90 minute game. Rondo can increase a player's skill level quickly because they are put in realistic game-like situations over and over again in a small time frame. A player can touch the ball twenty to forty times in a 5 minute period playing rondo. The touches in rondo are meaning full touches as well; they require players to find solutions to high pressure defending situations that are game related and virtually non-stop. “The Science of Rondo” is the ultimate book for coaches who want their teams to develop by using rondo training. The book includes my personal rondo-training curriculum that I use with my team. It contains rondo variations, progressions and transitions. I show you how to combine rondos with passing patterns, fitness exercises and game related possession drills. If you want to understand rondo and rondo training methods, than this book is for you. Enjoy.
