RONDOS IN MODERN FOOTBALL by Juan Solivellas Vidal
98 pages
Rondos in Modern Football presents 39 different training activities for teaching your team to keep and move the ball against opposition. The activities start simple with classic Rondo forms 3v1, 4v1, 4v2, etc., sometimes with new twists and variations, and progress to more complex activities with increased numbers and more demanding conditions that require increasingly dynamic movement from the players.
This is a great book for coaches at all levels who are looking for new ideas to increase the demand to their Rondos, teach additional concepts, and/or simply to add some new variations to keep your players interested and motivated.

KEEPING THE BALL by Ivan Pernia
166 pages
This book is just what it says on the cover: 50 progressively complex possession and positional games to help train your team to keep the ball. In contrast to a Rondo, where we will typically find one team in a permanent situation of numerical advantage and the other in a permanent situation of numerical disadvantage, a Possession Game uses neutrals to provide each team with a numerical advantage when in possession. Where Possession Games are used to teach universal possession concepts, Positional games are used to add important context and train your players to work together in a more game-related and position-specific way.
Well-presented with clear illustrations and detailed descriptions for all 50 activities (25 Possession Games and 25 Positional Games), this book is recommended for coaches of intermediate and advanced level players who already have a good basic grasp of possession concepts.
