How to do it at home
1. Enter your family code.
2. Tick the drills for this week — any, or All remaining.
3. Set the cones from the diagram.
4. Phone on a stand, rear camera, 0.5–0.6× so start and finish are both in shot. 1080p · 30 fps. No slow-mo, no HDR.
5. Clock starts on GO. One run per clip. Clock stops at the last cones — with-ball 30m when the ball goes through.
6. Send the clip. The AI reads time and technique onto the board. That drill then locks until Monday.
• Rear camera. Ultra-wide 0.5–0.6×.
• Stand or a wall — keep the phone still. Nobody walk in front of the lens.
• 1080p or 720p · 30 fps · MP4 or MOV · no slow-mo · no HDR · under 3 minutes.
• Grid on to line up start and finish.
Scores are age-related for 11-year-olds, in line with how pro academies look at speed and ball efficiency at U12. They are a guide, not a pass or fail.

Cullen’s trial
Cullen Atkinson-Lee on the Path2Pro UK training programs.
Path2Pro UK · 2m start gate · zig to the line, not around the cone
Start (bottom right): two cones, 2m apart. That is the start gate.
From the start, walk 10m left and drop a cone.
Up the left line: 5m, cone. Then 10m, cone. Then 10m — that last cone is FINISH.
Up the right line from the start gate: 10m to cone X. Then another 10m.
Width is 10m. Zig to the opposite cone — to the line, not around it — until the finish.
Run: zigzag to the first cone on the opposite side. Do not go around the cone — the body must reach the line by the cone. Keep going until the last gate.
Clock (with ball): starts when he first pushes the ball. Stops when the foot is on the ball in the end gate.
Clock (without ball): same course, same lines. Starts on the first push out. Stops through the end gate.
Tip: push out with knees bent. Do not slow down at the end.
2. Linear speed · 30m
Path2Pro UK · Speed and running with the ball
Four cones in a line, 10m apart: 0m, 10m, 20m, 30m.
Second line of four cones, 15m wide, so the lane is 15m across.
Without ball: clock starts when he pushes out. Stops when he reaches 30m.
With ball: clock starts when he first pushes the ball. At 20m he must pass through the end cones at 30m. Clock stops when the ball crosses the 30m line.
3. Turns · 3m box
Path2Pro UK · Turning · foot on the ball to finish
Mark a 3m square (four cones).
Start on the line, ball at feet.
There (3m) — turn. Back (3m) — turn. There (3m) — last turn. Sprint back.
Stop with the foot on the ball on the start line.
Head over the ball. Knees bent. Don’t slow down into the turn.
4. Shooting · Path2Pro UK
Full-size open goal · push out, then shoot across to the far corner
Full-size open goal. Two cones on the goal line, in line with each post — those are the bottom-corner boxes.
Two more cones 3m outside each post — the “just wide” zone. A line of cones 10m behind the goal — power line.
Start outside the penalty box. Push the ball out to the side with that foot, then shoot. You must not enter the box — if you do, that shot is 0 points.
Six shots: 3 from the left — push left with the left foot, shoot left foot into the far right corner. Then 3 from the right — push right with the right foot, shoot right foot into the far left corner.
