Fewer players in the session means each player will receive more touches of the ball, so they have more opportunity to make decisions and work on their skills in a competitive situation.
The more opportunity a player has to make decisions and work on their skills in a competitive situation the quicker they develop their soccer brains..
Opta defines touches as the “sum of all events where a player touches the ball”. For example, if a player controls the ball, gets it out of his/her feet, then passes it to a team-mate, that would be one touch. An interaction with the ball.
Players touch the ball five times more often in 4-a-side football and 50% more in 7-a-side.
Players will make better decisions when there are fewer players on the field as there are less options to consider.
When dealing with young players, we want to start off with only a few options and then build up from there when they begin to get a feel and understanding for the game.
You cannot expect an Under 6 player to make a decision when he/she is concentrating on ball control.
Players are three times more often in one-against-one situations in 4-a-side football and twice more often in 7-a-side.
The aim of the game is to out score the opponent you are playing against. In-turn an interaction with defending the opposing team from scoring to a transition to scoring in the opposite end for your team.
Small sided games like give players countless opportunities to interact with goal scoring and defending moments.
ALL players involved in small sided games have the opportunity score or make a goal saving moment a reality.
Goals are scored every two minutes in 4-a-side football on average and every four minutes in 7-a-side.
It’s easy for young players to hide in a game of 8v8, 9v9 and 11v11. Players will find it very hard to hide in a game of 4v4 and impossible in a 3v3. In small-sided games all players must contribute to the play and be involved every step of the game..
Small sided games stops one or two players dominating all the gameplay. Give all your players the chance to develop their skills and influence the game and learn from success and failures.
The ball is out of play 8% of the time in 4-a-side football, 14% in 7- a-side and 34% in 11-a-side. (Courtesy of fifa.com)

Why our small sided games are good for player development !

Small sided games with 3v3 and 4v4 models with two touches can improve pass accuracy.
Players will learn correct and most effective passing methods as fear of losing the ball has a greater consequence of conceding a goal.
Players will be able to pass the ball more often then in full fielded games. More interaction and more opportunities allows for a higher success rate.
Players will pass and receive a pass 48% more times within a small sided environment
Mental development is a huge area that is a challenge for education within the team environment and a players club. When playing a game or training each session has a volume of players needing attention, advice, teachings and development.
Within a small sided game each player can receive more targeted education and attention.
Players will learn and experience success and failures in very quick succession helping them understand and learn how to analyze, correct and progress their game
Our small sided games are played on fields 30 feet x 50 feet and 80 feet x 50 feet. The size of the field provides player interaction more regularly.
This provides no rest for the players involved in the game.
You cannot hide in this game!
With the constant involvement players will learn to never switch off their minds and be thinking about their contribution constantly.
