6 week action plan to improve a footballer's heading skills.
After spectating and analysing the play of this player I found that his main weakness is his heading. To improve this I have created a 6 week action plan for him that should hopefully help him with his heading.
Week 1
In the first week of this action plan the striker should first do some basic heading drills before trying to do more advance heading skills. The drills involve jumping headers which are basically jumping for the ball in the air as if you were going up in the air for a challenge, punch headers which are just fast bullet headers which involves a lot of power and acceleration in the neck. And lastly running headers which are when you run for the ball that has been thrown in front of you in the air and attack it. He should do at least 2 minutes work on each of them. Maybe if he is starting to get familiar and comfortable with this he could do this for a longer period of time.
