These sessions have been designed for one soccer season. There may only be time for 30 training sessions for a team during the season (or less in many cases). Hence the coach needs to choose which of the sessions shown are the 30 or so most required out of 50 presented for their particular team needs. In some weeks it may be one particular session is appropriate because the team may have been poor in that area during that week of games. This may mean a session or two being done out of the order they have been prepared here.  It is up to the coach to identify this need and choose “when and where” to do a particular session or even repeat it if necessary.  This means some other sessions may not be covered at all because of the time factor, there is nothing we can do about this and we must work to the best of our abilities under the constraints of the season and the time we have. This is not ideal in any way but we have to be realistic. For those prepared or able to do more, relevant sessions for them to cover have been prepared. It could include the off season training some teams do to aspire to better performance for when the season begins.
