2015 NCP 3v3 Female Fall-Fest Soccer Tourney

3v3 Soccer:

Modifying games are the best way for players to learn more about how to play soccer, as well as develop their technical skills. If there are fewer players on the field and the space is smaller, players will get more touches on the ball and have to make more decisions, technically and tactically. It is especially important at the youth ages. You want players to have the ability to solve problems as well as be creative. Using small-sided games will allow these situations to take place.
