U14 juniors with convincing performances in the comparison course

As part of a comparative training course, the Berlin U14 selection played two matches against the selection of the Hamburg Football Association. The focus of the matches at Volkspark Mariendorf was on intensive pressing and counter-pressing, the targeted recognition and use of deep options and the clear and consistent occupation of goal-scoring areas. The training course also offered the opportunity to further consolidate and refine the principles of large pitch play developed over the course of the season under competitive conditions.

Cohesive team performance and clear game plan

The Berliners implemented the set priorities in both games with great clarity and maturity. The clear results of 10:0 and 7:0 underline the quality of the performances, but above all stand for a cohesive team performance, which was characterized by high intensity, clean sequences and a good understanding of the game. It was particularly pleasing to see that all the players used contributed to the overall picture with effective actions, even in different positional roles.

"Development as a continuous process"

Association sports coach Lukas Fechner drew a positive conclusion: "The two matches were a very valuable assessment of the current season. The players implemented a lot of content with clarity and intensity and also took on individual responsibility. At the same time, it shows that development is a continuous process. It will be crucial to transfer the experience gained into everyday training at the club in order to take the next steps consistently."

On a sunny soccer pitch, a large group of players stand in several rows directly in front of a goal. The group is wearing different sets of shirts: One section is dressed in red jerseys with red shorts, another section is in dark jerseys, and some people are wearing yellow or light blue goalkeeper gear. They are all standing close together on the green artificial turf, with the front row slightly bent at the knees and the back row standing upright. In the background is a metal fence, behind which are trees without foliage and buildings that are only partially visible through the branches. The sky is clear and blue, and the sun casts clear shadows behind. The scene looks like a group photo of two or more teams together after a game or training event.

The comparative training course thus provided important impetus for further development and underlined the existing potential of the players. The Berlin squad included players from the clubs Lichtenrader BC, Hertha BSC, 1. FC Union Berlin, FSV Hansa 07, Rot-Weiß Viktoria Mitte, Rixdorfer SV, SC Borsigwalde and Köpenicker FC.
