With Tim Wheaton, Harvard University Head Women's Soccer Coach
Tim Wheaton brings you inside a practice session for a full hour; he takes an in-depth look at the strategic advantages of effectively changing the point of attack. Rather than playing up and down the field, Wheaton focuses on teaching your players to play across the field. This practice session is filled with possession games (such as: 6 v 3, 9 v 9 + 1, Keep Away, and the 3 Goal Game) that focus on keeping possession, identifying over-crowded areas, and moving the ball to less crowded areas. Throughout this video, Wheaton stops the games in progress, and brings forth coaching points that will help you coach your athletes; identifying proper and improper body positions for passing and receiving the ball, suggesting crisp passing, and identifying alternative passing options that will provide your players with a competitive advantage. An excellent video for teams looking to improve their tactical proficiency! (60 minutes, 1999)

With Mike Berticelli, University of Notre Dame Head Men's Soccer Coach, NSCAA Vice President of Education, and NSCAA Director of Coaching Emeritus
The 3-5-2 is an exciting system because of the strength in the midfield (5 players), the ability to attack from wide positions as well as internally, and the good numbers it presents on defense. In this video, Coach Berticelli takes you on a guided tour of the 3-5-2 system. He provides an excellent overview of the 3-5-2 and highlights the strengths and weaknesses the system presents. He also presents training exercises to use for each area of the field (for the defenders, the mid-fielders, and the front runners) that will help your athletes practice their positions and make the 3-5-2 a more effective system for your team! (45 minutes, 1999)

With Mike Berticelli, University of Notre Dame Head Men's Soccer Coach, NSCAA Vice President of Education, and NSCAA Director of Coaching Emeritus
The #1 concern for student-athletes, parents, and coaches is the recruiting process. This 10-step video walks you through the process step by step, while providing answers to the most frequently asked questions, such as: "How do I get noticed?" "What is the right program for me?" "What are the NCAA rules?" "What do I do first?" "How do I get a scholarship?" "Why didn't the coach return my call?" "Should I send a videotape?" If you hope to play soccer in college, or provide guidance to someone who will, this videotape is a must! It will be a true investment in any player's collegiate future! (42 minutes, 1999)

This videotape will give you and your team an excellent assortment of exercises used by the UConn Soccer team to improve your transition skills, your possession skills, and your effectiveness in attacking the box. Every exercise in this video is outlined on the chalkboard and then shown with demonstrations by college-level players.

(40 minutes, 1999)

With Jason Vittrup, U.S. Soccer, "A" License, Graduate of the Brazilian Football Academy
A detailed, well-presented video designed for the coach looking for a number of ideas and activities that will help players in their quest to improve on their ability to score goals! All exercises are activities less than 4 vs. 4; players will learn more than they do in typical game sequences because of the less-crowded, more focused conditions.
