Introduction
Specific-is the exercise meant for the individuals sport. Measurable-how are you going to find out if it works. Achievable-is it realistically challenging. Realistic-can it be done. Timed-how long is it going to last for. This is the basic principles of smart.

Conclusion
arrow=Footballer's movement White line=b***s path In this exercise the coach will feed the ball to one side of the cone the footballer is required to take a touch and return the ball to the feet of the coach and repeat until end of the session. During the session I will encourage the person when he makes a good pass and stop and ask him what he id wrong if it was a bad pass this way his self analysis of him self will help him understand what he did wrong instead of me telling him what he did wrong. I feel these methods will allow me to analyse his performance well. The results of the exercise should be recorded every time the session is done in the correct format e.g. table. Feedback from the player should be encouraged and the session should be altered if the participant is not happy in what he does.
