(Check [**here**](https://support.goalunited.org/en/articles/51-team-training-tactics.md) for more info) **The next 4 slots** are designated for general training (the colored training programs). You start off with just the first slot, to get more slots you need to build training facilities in your [**stadium**](https://support.goalunited.org/en/collections/9-stadium-complex). Your complete team always completes the same training, but each training program focuses on one part of your team. It mainly trains one skill (the first of the two shown) and slightly trains a second skill (the second shown). All players benefit from the training, but a player only receives full training effect for the main skill for his position. (A defender will get full benefits from Tackling training, some benefit from playmaking training, but only very little from scoring training.) It is only possible to train one unit for each skill per day. For example, all red programs are offensive training programs, all of them train scoring as a main skill, and another skill as a secondary skill. You can only use one of the red training programs per day. > **Info:** If you own the [**Clubhouse decoration buildings**](https://support.goalunited.org/en/articles/64-decorations.md), then you can set up a second main skill in your training plan.(e.g. if you own the Clubhouse Defender, you can set up Defender twice as the main training) > > **If you own the 5** [**Focus Training upgrades**](https://support.goalunited.org/en/articles/57-building-upgrades.md)**, you can unlock the Focus training programs with full focus on the main skill of the position. This means that the training focus will be fully on one skill (100% ratio) and not (80%-20%) as in the regular training programs.** > > **The last training slot** of the day is reserved for general training. Here you can focus more on the skills (on all skills a little), train your goalkeeper, your players' form, endurance or talent, or use the [Vitality training](https://support.goalunited.org/en/articles/64-decorations.md) or the [Focus Training Keeper.](https://support.goalunited.org/en/articles/57-building-upgrades.md) > > You can also let your players relax by using a relaxation unit, this helps them recover some ener**,**gy which can be a good idea during stressful times with many matches. **Training programs and actual efficiency** For a better understanding of how training programs work, let's first take a look at the available training programs that we can set in the daily training plan.

Main Skill + Secondary skill

Defender + Midfielder

Defender + Winger

Defender + Striker

Defender + Keeper

Midfielder + Defender

Midfielder + Winger

Midfielder + Striker

Midfielder + Endurance

Winger + Defender

Winger + Midfielder

Winger + Striker

Winger + Endurance

Striker + Defender

Striker + Midfielder

Striker + Winger

Striker + Form

The efficiency or players' effort in each skill training program is always 80% on the main and 20% on the secondary skill. For the special Focus training programs, the focus is 100% on one skill. When it comes to the Technique training program, the player has a 10% investment or better said potential gain from training for each of 5 skills (KEP, DEF, MID, WNG and OFF), and 50% for the Technique skill. The goalkeeper + Form training program has a ratio of 80% - 20% for Keeping (80) and for Form (20). Let's now expand Players, positions, skills and training progression below to see how skill progression is displayed and which skills have priority in training based on each position. **Players, positions, skills and training progression** The minimum that can be visually presented and awarded as a skill progression is a value that is rounded up to 0.01. This means that for very low values for some players, the game has no way to show this progression which is sometimes a value of 0.0002. The priority for the skills training varies based on each position:

Keeper	Defender	Midfielder	Wing Player	Striker
Main skill Kep 2nd skill Ta No other training	Main Skill Ta 2nd skill Pm 3rd skill Pa 4th skill Sc No effect for Kep	Main Skill Pm 2nd skill Ta 3rd skill Sc 4th skill Pas No effect for Kep	Main Skill Pa 2nd skill Sc and Pm 3rd skill Tac No effect for Kep	Main Skill Sc 2nd Skill Pm 3rd Skill Pa 4th Skill Ta No effect for Kep

> Kep = Keeping > > Ta = Tackling > > Pm = Playmaking > > Pa = Passing > > Sc = Scoring There are also other important factors that are taken into account in the calculation of the skill progression that players get: - Current skill value for each skill - Current age of the player Example: Players with skill 50 and players with skill 70 at different ages won't progress in the same way. Due to this, you may see players who don't get as much skill progression as other players. When a Versatility card is played on a player, this impacts the priority for the skills training. > **Success:** _Versatility Passing is played on a Midfielder player._ _As a result, the Midfielder player will gain full training efficiency as if he were a Wing player._ > > _Midfielder:_ > _Main Skill Playmaking_ > _Main Skill Passing_ > _Secondary skill Tackling_ > _Third skill Scoring_ > _No effect from Keeping training_ ### Training boost with videos You can also boost each individual training program by watching a video. After short clip training program will receive a 5% boost and then you also have a 50% chance to get the secondary video which can reward you with different in-game rewards. (Second video is guaranteed for premium account holders) ![](https://staticfiles.gleap.io/helpcenter/6830216aaf89f3506edf0699/20250602123048_4818.jpg) **Note**: A maximum of 50 secondary videos can be watched in one week and for the whole account (1,2 or 3 clubs). > **Warning:** If you make any changes to your training plan, your already obtained 5% training boost will disappear and you will need to watch a new video for that training program.
