IT'S ALL ABOUT RONDOS XAVI PDF

RONDOS ARE IDEAL FOR IMPROVING

TOUCH, DECISION MAKING AND CAN BE USED TO INTRODUCE TACTICAL ELEMENTS OF THE GAME.

SPACE AND NUMBER OF PLAYERS CAN VARY, BUT THE BASIC CONCEPT IS FOR PLAYERS IN POSSESSION TO HAVE A NUMERICAL ADVANTAGE (OVERLOAD) AND TO ‘KEEP THE BALL’ AWAY FROM THE DEFENDERS WHO ARE ‘IN THE MIDDLE.’

RONDOS PROMOTE:

 QUICK DECISIONS (1 TOUCH / 2 TOUCH).

 SHORT PASSING.

 MAINTAINING POSSESSION.

 THE IMPORTANCE OF OVERLOADS.

 GOOD TOUCH.

SOME YOUTH ACADEMIES WORRY ABOUT WINNING, WE WORRY ABOUT EDUCATION.

OUR MODEL WAS IMPOSED BY CRUYFF; IT'S AN AJAX MODEL.

IT'S ALL ABOUT RONDOS . RONDO, RONDO, RONDO. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. IT'S THE BEST EXERCISE THERE IS. YOU LEARN RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT TO LOSE THE BALL.

IF YOU LOSE THE BALL, YOU GO IN THE MIDDLE. PUM -PUM -PUM -PUM, ALWAYS ONE TOUCH.

IF YOU GO IN THE MIDDLE, IT'S HUMILIATING, THE REST APPLAUD AND LAUGH AT YOU.
