Event Type

SoccerDoc is hosting an intensive, practice-oriented one-day workshop featuring internationally renowned speed coach Jonas Dodoo (founder of Speedworks).

Speed in football is far more than sprinting fast—it relies on acceleration quality, rapid deceleration, changes of direction, braking strength, and efficient sprint mechanics. This hands-on workshop is specifically designed to refine your ability to observe, analyze, and coach high-speed movement in a football context.

🔑 Key Takeaways & Focus Areas

  • Movement Assessment Framework: Learn to quickly identify key movement characteristics in sprinting, braking, and changes of direction.
  • Testing & Video Analysis: Apply practical monitoring tools and video analysis to assess player biomechanics.
  • Gym-to-Field Transfer: Bridge the gap between strength room interventions and pitch movement mechanics.
  • Return-to-Performance Protocols: Design targeted exercises for rehabilitation, injury prevention, and athletic development.

🗓️ Program Overview

  • Morning Session (Assessment & Gym Transfer): Focuses on movement screening, testing protocols, video analysis, and practical program design.
  • Afternoon Session (Pitch & Field Mechanics): Practical on-field drills covering sprint technique, braking control, and multidirectional speed.
