Set the random drill
Build your drill
Give the drill a name, explain the setup and coaching points, then program every step.
Build with equipment blocks
Create a physical setup once, then run several progressive drills without moving the equipment. Add another block only when the setup needs to change.
How to use Reaction Lab
Reaction Lab gives players a visual instruction to react to. Use it for passing, movement, ball mastery, fitness, finishing and decision-making.
Run a simple reaction drill
Choose the cues you want, set how long each cue appears, choose what happens between cues, then press START RANDOM TRAINER.
Choose RED, BLUE and GREEN → Between cues: PASS → Cue: 3 sec → Gap: 5 sec. The player passes until a colour appears, reacts to that colour, then returns to passing.
Single and combined reactions
Select any mix of colours, numbers, directions, football actions and physical actions. PASS, JOG or BLANK can be used between reaction cues.
Turn on Show 2 selected cues together to create two-part decisions such as RED + RIGHT FOOT or 3 + STEP OVER.
Build an exact sequence
Create a drill step by step. Every action has its own duration and can be moved, duplicated or deleted.
PASS 5s → RED + RIGHT FOOT 3s → JOG 5s → TURN 3s → PASS 5s → SHOOT 3s
Single Cue shows one instruction. Combined Cue shows two chosen instructions together. Random Combo randomly combines two groups, such as Colours + Feet.
Make it easy for anyone to run
Setup / equipment: type where the cones, goals, rebounder or other equipment should go.
Description / what to do: explain how the player performs the drill.
Coach notes: add useful reminders such as “scan before the cue” or “encourage both feet”.
Build equipment blocks and progressive drills
Save your custom drills first, then create equipment blocks. Design each setup visually and add several drills that use the same layout. The displayed total is actual training time.
When one drill finishes, Reaction Lab pauses. Move the cones or equipment, read the next drill's setup, then press READY — START NEXT DRILL. Setup time does not reduce the training time.
Reaction Lab Sessions vs My Sessions
Reaction Lab Sessions are official published sessions loaded from Reaction Lab and can be seen by everyone.
My Sessions and custom drills are currently saved to the browser/device you created them on.
Track completed training
Finish a drill or full session and you can choose whether to add its actual training time to the tracker. Weekly milestones unlock at 30, 60, 90, 120 and 180 minutes. Stopping a drill early does not add it to the tracker.
Useful cue ideas
PASS: continuously pass with a rebounder or partner. JOG: jog on the spot until the next instruction. CHANGE: swap the active player in a group drill. LEFT/RIGHT FOOT: use only that foot. TURN: change direction. SHOOT: finish at goal.
Colours and numbers can mean whatever your setup needs — coloured gates, numbered cones, targets, movements or decisions.
Keep it simple for young players
Start with only two or three possible reactions. Add more cues or combined cues once the player understands the drill. The aim is quick recognition and decision-making, not remembering complicated rules.
