Soccer tactics consist of knowledge, skills and the ability to understand the situation. Tactical preparation of each player is a very important component of the game especially for players aged 13 years and older. The ability to recognize different patterns, to adapt to different game formations, to choose the correct position on the field, the ability to “read the game” and distinguish between attack and defensive tactics are all extremely important elements of modern soccer.
   A proven training process at SEFA Soccer includes mandatory viewing of post game video. We carefully analyze both our failures and successes. This is also  supplemented by videos of world class players and teams to show similar situations and how to properly execute these plays. The result is instant feedback and understanding.

   The success of a player can be amplified by knowledge of the basics of psychology. In the interactions between the coach and the player, questions arise requiring proper feedback. Proper planning is required to be able to deliver the correct answer. The strategy of preparing athletes of individual sport is very different from that of training athletes of a soccer team. In the former, it is a single individual, in the latter, it is a single individual in a group of many. Generally, soccer for children under 12 years old are interested primarily in the training process and the quality of soccer in itself is of no interest. Conversely, children over 12, are more critical and are more prone to analysis, thereby, more interested the fine tuning of their skill set. That is why we at SEFA Soccer consider psychological preparation as challenging and requiring an individual approach tailored to each player.
