9v9 Match Day Plan

I recently bought the 9v9 Match Day Plan from Pro Academy Drills, and it’s been a huge help for organizing my team’s strategy. The plan outlines clear positioning and tactics, which has made it easier to communicate roles to the players, especially during transitions. The visuals are straightforward, and the instructions are easy to apply on game day. It’s been a great addition to my coaching resources, and I’d recommend it to anyone managing a 9v9 team!
