From Street Soccer to Professional Soccer
Brazilians are well known for developing their incredible creativity and flair through countless hours of street soccer games organized by the players themselves and far away from the structure and influence of teams, leagues, and coaches.
Only after this rich street soccer experience will the child learn the techniques and tactics from professional clubs. They will also learn discipline in training and practicing the fundamentals of their position. This sequence beginning with a fun and creative atmosphere and later moving to a structured and professional environment is critical in the emergence of Brazilian soccer stars.
The goal of Brazilian Soccer Academy Volume I is to demonstrate how the Brazilian training methods can create great results by following an educational curriculum including specific and adapted sessions focusing on the Initial Development phase of training. This curriculum will show, in detail, how the top Brazilian Youth Academies develop the U8 through U12 age groups during the transition from Futsal (5v5) to 8v8 and finally to the 11v11 game format developing to a complete team, while at the same time forming more creative and unpredictable players.
Brazilian Soccer Academy Volume I is organized so that you can see what a Brazilian team does for each of their weekly training sessions. This insight allows you to not only see which drills and exercises are used but how they are placed within an overall cycle of training. Each chapter covers a particular 'Period' of the training cycle, beginning with the 'Basic Period' and moving through the 'Specific Development Period', 'Economical Period', 'Specific Development Period 2' and finally the 'Regenerative Period'. More than 100 easy-to-read diagrams illustrate each session along with detailed explanations of the set-up, player movements, and important coaching points.
