Teach one technical habit per block.
Make both-foot work normal from the start.
Start with controllable skills
First touch, close control, and weak foot are useful foundations for every youth player.
Keep practice age-appropriate
World Cup examples should be simplified into movements young players can repeat.
Use targets for feedback
Targets show whether the touch was controlled without requiring long coach explanations.

Make the next touch measurable.
Foundation touch block
Run a fixed two-target route and count clean stops.
Weak-foot mini block
