CASE STUDY
Alvar is an astute U19 defensive midfielder playing for a team aiming to qualify for the Allsvenskan U19.
GOAL: Improve his positioning (specially defensive positioning) and improve his physical game
When Alvar started his journey, he was a clever player with a clear commitment to excellence but faced some challenges: occasionally mispositioning on the field, especially defensively, and his light frame. He was often out of position during critical defensive actions which impacted his performance.
Recognizing these challenges, Alvar worked closely with our analysts to enhance his defensive positioning and understanding of the game’s flow. This personalized coaching focused on improving his physical strength to complement his height and refining his ability to quickly recover his position after offensive plays.
Alvar’s dedication to his personalized training program has give remarkable results:
As Alvar keeps getting better with our special coaching, his future in football looks really bright. His change from a talented but under-weight midfielder to a strong defender shows how much personalized training and analysis can help.
Alvar’s consistent engagement with our program—regular meetings and dedicated improvement sessions—has been crucial to his progress.
When I first started, I knew I had potential but struggled with certain parts of the game. Working with the analysts here, I've grown a lot, both mentally and physically.
Working with my own video showed me how crucial it is to be in the right place at the right time. I've learned how to position myself effectively, which is key for stopping fast counterattacks and dealing with loose balls.
Since starting this program, my performance has improved a lot. I've played every minute of our qualifying matches for the Allsvenskan U19, helping us maintain a perfect record and strengthen our defense. I feel now more confident in the field.Alvar Bergström
