Formato Master & Formato Pro Freestyle​

 

Formato Master skills program focuses on 100 ball mastery, attacking, transition, pick-up, trap & juggling skills. Players participate in 45-minute training modules that revolve around learning the skills for each level. These modules teach/practice skills in a variety of fun & challenging exercises. Once learned they are performed in a predetermined Formato (format/sequence) of 36-72 moves. Home practice becomes motivating & defineable. As players progress through levels 1-12 so does the skill difficulty, number of skills & number of moves. A player may assess to pass a level once they receive a Mastery Sticker for each skill in that level & show successful Formato three times. Assessments are held once a month & badge celebration ceremonies/demonstrations are quarterly. Formato Master Freestyle is an advanced badge that is achieved once you master a level by experimenting with the moves & creatively developing your own Formato.

 

Formato Pro Freestyle program focuses on 112 off-the-hook freestyle skills, performed in Formato levels

13-24. These levels can be attempted in any order and simultaneously if desired.  Players participate in

45-minute training modules that revolve around learning advanced techniques that have been choreographed into a predetermined sequence. These have been created by some of the worlds most skilled & famous footballers & freestylers. Study their videos and emulate the 36-72 moves they expertly perform. Once you have mastered their sequence craft your own with the newly discovered skills. Once you have received a Formato Pro Mastery Sticker for each skill & performed both the pro's & your freestyle sequence expertly the coach will approve your participation in the monthly assessment session.
