TOVO T3. Another unbelievably fruitful experience of learning and joy! Surrounded by remarkable coaches, amazing kids, and unparalleled leadership. 🇪🇸
#TOVO

By and large US and Canadian players are prejudiced by the training they receive in the formative years. 🇺🇸 🇨🇦

“Skill drills” that do not require any understanding of situational or spatial relationships limit development.

#TOVO

Start here as a coach…✏️

▪️Purpose
Why do you coach?

▪️Product
What will your players be able to do, know or be as a result of your guidance?

▪️Process
How will you train to maximize learning?

JTerm Barcelona 🇪🇸

57 student athletes starting their journey to extraordinary at TOVO Academy Barcelona.

T1 Coaches arrive tomorrow for a week of learning and joy.

Pure Develolment - No politics, no power struggles.

#TOVO

Barking from the sidelines during matches is mostly just noise.

Feedback during training however accelerates learning when it is on “TASC.”

▪️ Timely
▪️ Actionable
▪️ Specific
▪️ Concise

#TOVO Training Protocols

Where we get it right ✔️

Implementing exercises in which a young athlete must…

▪️ Scan for relevant cues
▪️ Choose from options
▪️ Deceive an opponent
▪️ Execute with precision

(Cognitive and technical fidelity)

#TOVO Training

Where we get it wrong.

❌ Far too many coaches (and coach instructors) fall into the complexity snare. More is impressive trap.

✔️ Our task as educators is to maximize learning by making content as simple as possible. Less is impressive.

For those growing up in 🇺🇸 and 🇨🇦, it may be hard to accept that skillful players emerge from contextual and competitive activities.

For those growing up in 🇪🇸, this is common sense and the way skills emerge.

Consider training accordingly.

Amazing how winning with learning and joy leads to more victories! #TOVO

Youth Coaches

✔️ Victory is outscoring your opponent.

However…

▪️ Consider “winning” as promoting learning & joy - both of which you can do regardless of a match result.

Welcome to the #TOVO Network.

Jesse,

Let me know if Canada is interested in rethinking and redesigning talent development at the youth level.

Kind regards from Barcelona,

Dear Coaches

The more I study football the more I realize it is a game of spatial relationships and far too many training drills do not nurture a player’s capacity to see nor manage those relationships.

#TOVO

Cognitively faithful training exercises:

✅ Mirror real-game demands
✅ Boost decision-making
✅ Enhance transfer of skills

Train to play. Play to train.

#TOVO

So much of training is based upon the way we wish kids would learn, rather than how they actually learn.

❌ Line drills and circuits may look impressive but they do not maximize learning.

✔️ Consider contextual and competitive exercises instead.

Great to see you on Bluesky!

I’m looking forward to your grassroots course in 2025!

Fortunate to earn USSF badges and learned about #TOVO. Just finished third season as assistant coach for boys high school program.

Now coaching at club’s foundation phase (U6-U8). Love helping the littles and new parent volunteer coaches learn and enjoy football!

To deliver an effective training program we must first understand how young athletes learn best.

▪️We then are better prepared to inspire and educate.

▪️If we promote learning and joy, all else falls into place.

Snowplow Parents ✍️

We don’t nurture resilience in our children by ridding their path of every obstacle.

Let them pick up a shovel to dig through those desirable difficulties.
