Tactical periodization is a proven successful football coaching method. All training is driven by tactical training. It allows you the coach, to improve all other attributes (technical, conditioning and decision making) at the same time, within every single tactical practice. You will learn how to use periodization to train your players at the correct intensity for each day of the week, making sure they are always prepared tactically, mentally and physically for competitive matches. Your players (and team) will react quicker, be sharper, and make better decisions in all tactical situations. Tactical periodization also helps to accelerate players' understanding of their positional roles and responsibilities in an efficient way, which ultimately improves the team's tactical performance. This book includes the background and development of Tactical Periodization, the Methodological Principles, The Game Model (specificity), Tactical Organisation in the 4 Phases of the Game, Analysing the Previous Match Performance and the Next Opponent, Weekly Training Objectives, Training Sessions for a 1 Match Week and Training Sessions for a 2 Match Week.
