The EDP Skills Sessions are designed for players who want to accelerate their individual development through focused technical training and competitive small-sided environments.

Unlike traditional team training, these sessions place an emphasis on maximizing touches, improving decision-making, and developing the technical tools needed to perform under pressure.

Whether you're looking to sharpen your first touch, become more confident in 1v1 situations, or improve your finishing, EDP Skills Sessions provide an environment where players are challenged, coached, and encouraged to take risks.

Program Focus

Each session is built around individual player development and includes:

• Ball mastery and technical development

• First touch and receiving under pressure

• Passing and combination play

• 1v1 attacking and defending

• Finishing and goal scoring

• Small-sided games that promote creativity and decision-making

Why Small-Sided Training?

Small-sided games create more opportunities for players to:

• Get more touches on the ball

• Make quicker decisions

• Improve spatial awareness

• Develop confidence in possession

• Compete in game-realistic situations

With fewer players on the field, every player is more involved in the action, leading to faster development and increased repetitions.

Who Should Attend?

EDP Skills Sessions are ideal for motivated players who:

• Want additional training outside of their club environment

• Are committed to improving their technical ability

• Enjoy competing in challenging, high-tempo training environments

What to Expect

Each 90-minute session is designed to maximize player development through a progression of:

• Dynamic technical warm-up

• Ball mastery activities/Individual technical training

• Small-sided games
