Fitness Evaluations Get a firsthand look at how a top-notch college soccer program runs their fitness testing. In the weight room segment, you'll see the team go through vertical jump and speed testing with short distance sprint timing. In an outside segment, you'll see an endurance testing exercise that can be fine-tuned to each player's abilities. Technical Evaluations The technical portion of this DVD looks at shooting activity and improving the shot speed of players. The power of each player's foot helps Coach Dorrance know which of his players has the ability to take long-range shots outside of the 18-yard box. This information helps players work on their shooting techniques and also helps coaches identify long-distance shooters. Another part to the technical evaluations are cross-field aerial passes that are based on the distance and accuracy of the kicker, as well as the receiver's ability to settle the ball with their first touch. This will help players improve their techniques and help coaches know what aspects players need to work on in the future.
