6 of the best rondos to develop your players. If you are a possession-based team, these rondos will be invaluable from a player and team development perspective. We hope you like them; let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
What if you are not great in possession ,we are u13 C team can we not do this to get better or is it not for us then ?
I LIKED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is that John Adams Middle School in Santa Monica?!
Glad you liked it William! And yes, it is indeed JAMS 😎
These exercises are beneficial for any team of any level looking to improve player decision making under pressure (which is essentially the foundation of the game). For teams who play a long ball game and rely on their biggest, fastest player (common in youth soccer), there is likely less benefit from these rondos. What they will definitely do is improve individual and team ability to keep possession, even if that’s not something you are good at right now.
@@Roger92F you can use your pitch and discuss how to make the pitch bigger wider and longer in possession. Movement is everything
I really, really like when a coach gives the KEY points of the drills, great source coach.
Thank you Josh! It’s important to have that focus on the key points so we can get the message across to the players.
THANKS. Great summary of key points in each rondo
Thanks Chris! Glad you found the video helpful.
Very nice summary of some effective rondos. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the kind words; glad you enjoyed the summary! Good luck for the season ahead 👍
These are very insightful.
Thanks for shedding new ideas on!
Glad you found them helpful Natine!
Thanks for the rondo content. My boys travel teams rondo every day. We start training session that way. We end it that way.
Glad you like the content and great to hear your boys’ teams use rondos often. So beneficial for young players!
Great clip thankyou for remotivating me to reintroduce Rondos as part of our training cycle
Glad you enjoyed it David! For a short time, we moved away from rondos in our practices and saw a clear regression among players in terms of possession quality and ball movement in games. Needless to say we’ve moved back to a heavy focus on rondos again.
Really nice sequence of drills. Thank you!
Glad you found them helpful!
This is GOLD!! Love it!! Been looking for some really effective Rondos as Warm Ups or for actual Training Drills - Just found them all in 1, 8-minute video!!! I coach an U14B's Team at Langwarrin SC in Melbourne and this is perfect for my boys! Thanks a lot!!
Glad you like them Nick! They've massively helped our teams in Los Angeles over the last 7 years so no doubt they'll be great for your boys. Good luck!
Love and appreciate your breakdown and explanations, top channel 👏👏👏👏👍💯
Thanks Aeron, glad you found it helpful! More on my website 👍
Excellent content. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing. Like with actual person's on the video, not like other videos only dots.
Best rondos vids so far.
thank you Toto! We agree, it's definitely better seeing actual players doing the exercises. That's what we will continue to do moving forward.
Great content, thank you for some new ideas! There are so many different variations of rondos that can be incorporated into learning about space, angles, distances, technical ball work, as well as defending.
great comment and absolutely true. We need to spend time on specific rondos to allow the players to improve their speed of decision making but they also need variety, both from a learning perspective and also to keep them challenged. Game-specific situations and tactical work is clearly required on top of rondos but there is no question that rondos can play a big part in player and team development, particularly if the focus is on quality, not just running the rondos for the sake of it or just as a warm-up.
Love it, great explanation 👍
Glad you liked it!
Excellent
Thanks for your valuable Help
Glad you found it helpful Rauff!
THANKS FOR SHARING THIS, AND I MUST AGREE WITH YOU ABOUT BEEN PATIENT AND COMMITED TO DEVELOP PLAYERS, RONDO IS A GREAT EXERISE TO GET TEAMS TO PLAY MOE CONFORTABLE IN TIGHT POSITIONS, SPECIALLY TRYING TO PLAY FROM THE BACK, IT WILL MAKE A MASSIVE DIFFERENCE FOR TEAMS. WE DID IT IN OUR ACADEMY AND AFTER 5-6 MONTHS WE SAW THE DIFFERENCE ONT HEW HOLE TEAM. THAKS AGAIN.
Fantastic Coach; so glad to hear you saw the improvement with your academy! I’ve watched our 150 kids improve so much in the last 7 years doing these exercises; there is always more to coach them but these rondos provide a really good base for them to be comfortable playing under pressure 🙏
I've thoroughly enjoyed this content. 10/10 👍💯
Glad you enjoyed it!
Best Rondo video 💥
Thanks! 🙏
Brilliant content!
cheers Dec, appreciate the support!
La verdad me encantó lo voy a poner en práctica muchísimas gracias
me alegro que te haya gustado, suerte!
really good ones, even the big ones for stamina training
Yes, the bigger the space, the more running. The smaller the space, the more actions.
perfect vidéo, this will be fun with my groupe of 10 year olds
🤝
Mahalo from Hawaii. This is great. Subscribed. I am a former player who gave up soccer to surf more. I regret that actually. Although I did get some good waves. My 8 year old son plays now and I look forward to implementing rondos like these.
Thanks Molo! These rondos are in basically every session I coach. Players love them and their development is fantastic. Keep enjoying the surf and enjoy being on the field with your son, that’s precious time!
انا مدرب جديد وفريقي ضعيف التمرير.اعتقد هذا الفيديو سيفيدني ويطور فريقي بشكل رهيب
It will for sure. Enjoy!
Amazing!!
Gracias Javier!
great and simplified ball possession
Thanks Symon. Rondos are really such a simple but beneficial way to incorporate lots of touches with lots of decision making. Both of which are vital for development.
Thanks dude, I’m training 7/8th graders and this helps a lot.
Good to know it helps! These rondos will give them some variety and challenge 👍
super concise video. love it. great you show the tactical board AND the video of players demonstrating each rondo. For the 8 V 3 rondo, have you found an efficient way to switch the middle 3 defenders? About how long does each group play D? I just started coaching a high school girls team in CT and I find that the girls like the competitive rondos especially with goals for the defenders to score in.
Thanks for the feedback Steve. For the 8v3, we usually have the middle 3 working for around 2 minutes. If they win possession, they try to keep it but we’ve also used goals that they can score in at each end. Having the goals as an option makes it more engaging for the defenders, especially with young players.
@@PaulSpacey I THINK ADDING the goals certainly makes it more interesting for the chasing team, 3XP. another way to do it is divided in teams of 3s, it would be 9v3 but can always have a team of 2 and then when they go in, an extra player from from the other team can be added.
Yes the goals definitely add incentive for the defending team and that’s important. Adapting to keep it interesting for players is vital 🙏
I'm from South Africa an U-13 grassroots level coach. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for the comment Moses; glad you found the rondos video useful. I used to exchange emails and ideas with Ted Dumitru (RIP) who I think was well known in SA as a coach?
@@PaulSpacey yes he was a Mamelodi Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs coach. Also coached the senior men's national team, Bafana Bafana. Thanks again and pls continue developing coaches. 🙏🏾
this is a particularly good video
Thanks, it’s definitely caught on in terms of views and feedback. I’m building the rondos and other exercises into a simple to follow course for coaches to implement with their teams. Course coming later this month…
Nice one!
thanks Rene!

🙌
perfect
Thanks! 👍
What’s the player’s motivation?
I’m a new coach and the one thing I’ve found is that if there’s not a winner they loose interest.
Thanks for the tutorial
You can make all of the rondos competitive. For smaller rondos, have many groups and move up/down the groups depending how well you perform (losing the ball the most relegates you to the lower group for example).
For bigger rondos, add goals with certain rules, such as scoring after transferring the ball from end to end for example.
looks very good
Thanks Cristian! 👍
Great videos, just wondering which software do you use to draw/animate these exercises?
Thanks Bas, glad you like it! We use Tactical Pad for the animations.
Good work
Thanks!
❤❤
🙏
Very good
👍
Can you use some of these drills for a pre game warm up?
Absolutely. We use them in most of the pre-game warm ups for our teams.
how long would you do each of these rondos for during a session?
Depends on the age group and level of players. The younger/lower levels would usually be a shorter time. Older/higher level players can work on a specific rondo for 30+ minutes and maintain both the quality and intensity.
A good rule of thumb for most youth players is 15-20 minutes for one of these rondos. It gives enough time to work on the concepts without it getting stale and boring. The most important thing is always the quality/intensity; if you just go through the motions, you get way less benefit and of course that goes for all training. As a coach, you’ve got to place a huge emphasis on the quality and intensity of what players are doing.
In the 4V4+4 do the jokers press for the ball
No they are always with the team on the outside in possession. They don’t press to win it back.
Does defender should only touch the ball or get possession of the ball?
That’s up to you. For me, touching the ball is enough in the 3v1 and 4v1 rondos.
Good
👍
In guardiola’s 4v4+4 , what if the 4 neutral jokers lose the ball?
Whichever team they were working with, possession switches to the other team.
What is the advantage of two touch compared to one touch?
More realistic for most players. One touch is extremely difficult unless players are advanced in their technical skills and decision making. Two-touch also works on your first touch in terms of controlling the ball to set yourself for the next pass.
@@PaulSpacey Great, thanks.
What size are the spaces
For which exercise? Sizes are shown in the video. If it’s a specific exercise, let me know and I’ll give you a range of sizes to use.
9 v 3 rondos ,
If you mean the 8v3 rondo, start as small as 8 yards by 15 yards, then you can increase the size up to double that as the max.
What's a "rondo"?
A possession exercise where one team has numerical superiority, usually played in a small space. So many different variations make it one of the most beneficial training methods for teams of all levels.
In Thailand we call Monkey chase ball.
Lots of different names for Rondos. Used to be keepaway or monkey in the middle in the US but the word Rondo is used more now.
They are all standing still 4 v 1 on the outside with the defender running in circles to intercept the ball. It should be 3v1 in a square shape which forces the players to move without the ball to get into position to receive from the player with the ball.. not 4 guys standing around on the outside passing it in a circle.
The 3v1 version is included in this video; it's just a different version with different options to work on.
I watched the first couple drills and thought to comment before I finished the video so I must have missed the 3v1. I think the most vital rondo is 3v1 and maybe should be shown first and as the tab in the video for several reasons:
1. your practice squad can be short of players and younger teams have less players (8 or 12 perhaps) so a drill with only 4 is accommodating.
2. 3v1 rondo teaches one of the harder things for younger players to grasp which is where and when to move without the ball to help your team keep possession.
3. Players learn to properly defend since with only 3 attackers in play, the defender can learn about denying passing options and forcing the player with the ball to commit an error which can be intercepted or tackled upon arrival to the one remaining available option.
The 3v1 rondo is king! Trains ball control in tight spaces, field vision, movement without the ball, and proper defensive strategy.
I agree. 3v1 is the best rondo for young players, both in terms of touches and difficulty but also in terms of movement required and the learning of angles/space.
Don't call yourself FC England and then call it Soccer 😭💔
It’s a fair point Matt 😅
football/fútbol/soccer all still the same game 😉
And use measurements in Yards... 😄
😅 good shout
Soccer is an English word for the game used to distinguish Association football from rugby football, or "footer" as it used to be called. "Assoccer" became just soccer and only later gave way to "football". But the countries that call it soccer do so because that's what British expats who introduced the game called it at the time.
