Fun Football games
Tried and tested games
For younger players.

Please note that most of these games are not my
own creations and are games that I’ve seen either
being used by other coaches or what I’ve seen on
the internet such as twitter.
I do not claim credit for them but I have adapted
them so they work for my players.
There are 50 games in this booklet all are what I
have played with both my u8s and u11s teams and
have really helped me and more importantly the
kids really seem to enjoy them.
I hope they help as many coaches as possible and
that everyone finds them useful.
Please remember to let your players play and let
them have fun, fun, fun.
Cheers Lee.
