Every drill in the SimpleDrills library, organised by category. Step-by-step instructions, coaching points, and visual diagrams for grassroots coaches.
Every drill here follows the same format: a diagram, step-by-step setup, and the coaching points that actually matter — not just "what to do" but why it works. Browse by category below if you're planning around a specific skill, or use the format/phase/theme/duration filters further down the page if you're building around a squad size, session slot, or time budget. If you'd rather have a full session assembled automatically, try the Session Builder.

Check Price →How is the drill library organised?
Three ways: by category (shooting, passing, defending, dribbling, first touch, set pieces, goalkeeping, warm-up, fitness, small-sided games, pre-season), by format (3v3 through 11v11, plus futsal), and by session phase or theme. Use whichever grouping matches how you're planning — by topic if you're building a themed session, by format if you're matching your squad's game type.
