Coming into the match day organised and prepared in time to greet the players with a smile on your face is an important win for you as a coach.

Waiting until the last minute to sort everything could be stressful, and this is neither good for you, nor the players and parents.

There’s often so much to do on match day; setting up the pitch, taking care of the admin, and deciding on your starting team. That’s all before you’ve had a chance to think about getting the players prepared.

So, to help you, we’ve put together a few warm-ups that you can use with your players pre-match, so they are ready and raring to go when the whistle blows.

You can download the practice plan here. You’ll need to login in, or register for a FREE MiMentor account, to access this and many more free coach development courses, resources and content.

And, if you’d like more advice on how you can be prepared for match day, then why not take a look at our online coaching CPD course, Managing Match Day. Click here to find out more.

The course, created by our coach development mentor and former FA Tutor, Jamie Godbold, also features other downloads to help you on match day, including a match day team planner and player challenge cards.

The course is currently available on the MiMentor Platform for HALF-PRICE, that’s just £5.
