Key Points

This Coffee Break session focuses on how to build a football preseason in a practical, structured, and realistic way. We will walk through the decision-making process behind preseason planning, from defining clear preseason objectives, to linking testing and profiling with training content, and finding the right balance between volume, intensity, and recovery. Special attention will be given to aligning conditioning work with football-specific training demands. The session is designed as an open discussion that connects theory with real club practice. Through shared examples and concrete questions from everyday football environments, we aim to challenge ideas, exchange experiences, and leave you with clear, actionable principles that can be applied immediately in your own work.

Applications open until 30.01.2026.

Key Points

This event is specifically designed for professionals working in multidirectional sports, where acceleration, deceleration, and rapid changes of direction define performance. Throughout the webinar, participants will explore key aspects of neuromuscular training, including biomechanics, strength programming, and practical methods for improving on-field performance. A dedicated segment will focus on muscle injury rehabilitation, making this event especially valuable for rehabilitation coaches and physiotherapists working within team environments or running their own performance and rehab centers. In addition, the program includes a specialized module for goalkeepers, addressing the unique demands of the position and providing clear guidelines on how to effectively structure and adapt training for this specific population. By combining scientific principles with real-world application, this webinar delivers actionable insights that can be immediately implemented in both performance and rehabilitation settings. Participants will also receive additional educational materials, access to the full recording, and a certificate of participation.
Applications open until 14.04.2026.
