Three of the 112, exactly as they come in the download. Each is about 25 seconds, silent, and named to match its session page: setup first, then the movement, then the coaching point.

Questions

Who is this for?

Intramural and recreational programs for ages 4–8: club technical directors building a curriculum, professional trainers running multiple groups, and parent volunteers coaching for the first time. The plans read the same way for all of them.

How do the videos work?

Alongside the PDF you download a ZIP with 112 short animated MP4 videos, one for every activity, named by grade, week and activity to match the session pages. Watch the one you need on your phone the night before, or on the sideline. They play in any video app and there is nothing to install.

Can I print it?

Yes. It’s laid out for US Letter and prints on any home or office printer. Most coaches print the week’s page and take it to the field on a clipboard.

What equipment do I need?

A size 3 ball per player, 40 disc cones in two colors, four pop-up goals (or cones), and pinnies. The season kit page lists exactly what to bring each week, and every game works with cone goals.

Can my whole club use it?

The standard purchase is licensed to one coach. Clubs and leagues can get a club license that covers every coach in the organization and includes a live onboarding session.

Are refunds available?

No — this is a digital download delivered instantly, so all sales are final. Not sure it’s the right fit? Look through the sample pages above, or email Gabe with your question before you buy.

Bring it to your whole club

A club license covers every coach in your organization and includes a live onboarding session with Gabe, so your staff run it the same way from U5 to U8.
