How the factor is layered across the week

  1. Monday

    Recovery + Light Technical

    Introduce this week's factor. Give it a name and a felt example from Saturday's match.

  2. Tuesday

    Tension — Introduce

    Load it under pressure. Short reps, sharp cues — name the factor at the freeze moments.

  3. Wednesday

    Duration — Develop

    Apply it under fatigue. Bigger spaces, more decisions — the factor shows up when tired.

  4. Thursday

    Velocity — Express

    Express it at match speed. The factor should be automatic now — cue it in real time.

End-of-week reflection

  • Did the tactical principle show up in the match?

    Be specific. Cite moments.

  • Did the SFERA factor show up? What does the Mandala data say?

    Squad avg movement this week vs. last. Any red flags?

  • What's the next teaching priority?

    What did this week reveal needs work next?

Rules for picking

  • › ONE tactical principle per week. Not two. Teaching one thing well beats teaching three things badly.
  • › ONE SFERA factor per week. Cycle through all five over 5 weeks, or match it to the tactical principle when the fit is obvious.
  • › From the most recent match. What broke down on Saturday? Train that on Tuesday–Thursday.
  • › Cycle through phases. Don't spend 6 weeks straight on attacking principles. Mix in possession, transition, defensive work.
  • › Build season-long progressions. Plan in 4-week blocks.
