HOW IT WORKS?

I  Yearly training program is divided into three semesters with an emphasis on developing technique as it’s the main objective.
II The weekly sessions have two to three objectives that are compatible with each other and intersect between them, covering technique, physical phase, and tactical game understanding.
III During three weekly training sessions, objectives can be covered separately in each session, or divided during each session into the warm-up and progressed to the main part.
