Many of our children play football to some degree and I imagine we also have some qualified coaches among us. I'd like to tap some of that knowledge to help my eldest son progress as the level gets better.

He is U9 and plays both for the local U9 and U10 team. The U10 group is actually very strong and beat the local MLS team of the same age but he is able to hang with them. His technique is fine and he's working on it all the time, got good football IQ but obviously he finds it a little bit quicker pace of game and he want to improve his quickness, agility, acceleration and top end speed. I've been looking on youtube for exercises to help him but was wondering if anyone here had a program that would be suitable rather than me cobbling something together that is not effective.

And no paedophile/rape jokes before anyone thinks of posting one. Should go without saying really but have to post it as I know what some are like etc etc
