Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's all about the statistics! Tip the odds in your favor! While you can't control everything the kids do on the field, you can certainly make sure that when the play stops, that they use techniques and strategies to help them retain possession, steal the ball, block kicks, put the ball in play correctly, and score goals. Use statistics and strategy to your advantage! Whether you are a first time coach or have been coaching for a while, this very short 20 page book will teach you how to coach your kids, how to run practice, tell you which drills to run, and how to win by tipping the odds in your favor! Coach Alo has been involved in sports for over thirty years, whether it's playing sports, being a coach on the field, and now coaching from the sidelines. He's taken all the statistical research about soccer from the last forty years, as well as first hand experience coaching youth soccer, and turned it into a very simple guide. This is a very concise book on what you need to teach your kids to do on throw ins, corners, goal kicks, center balls, and how to ingrain those techniques into their brains so that they can do it instinctively during the games. It also talks about what you should not be doing in each scenario. This is not a very long course in statistics or statistical analysis. That's been taken out. This is just the very basic techniques you can teach to tip the odds in your favor. It's a very fast read and you will be able to use this information right away. If you've already coached youth soccer, now you can learn how to do it right. Yes, these strategies and techniques will work at every level. We've taught this to 10 and 12 year olds as well. Even high school and college athletes have benefited from our system. But you'll be surprised how many high school and college athletes still use improper techniques and do things wrong. They just were never taught properly or they didn't have the benefit of years of soccer statistics analysis.

Download or read book Coaching 6 7 and 8 Year Olds written by Tony Waiters and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-09-17 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHY WE HAVE CHANGED?The first edition of Coaching 6, 7 & 8 Year Olds was written in collaboration with Bobby Howe, at that time the Director of Coaching for the Washington State Youth Soccer Association, later Director of Coaching for the United States Soccer Federation. That was a long time ago (1988)...One year later we published Coaching 9, 10 & 11 Year Olds.Until recently, we hadn't changed a word in either of them. Why? Like the Energizer Bunny they just kept on going, and going and going...!Over 100,000 copies of each of the originals have been sold. As I'm sure you would understand, we were reluctant to change. Consequently, nothing did except the photographs of the two authors. The book didn't age, but the authors did!Since 1989, we have learned so much. So now it is time to change in order to update and improve the books, but at the same time, we will retain much of the core content that has worked so well.The 21st Century has given as another great technological opportunity - digital printing.We are now able to customize, modify and change the content of the manuals and the covers at will. We can update with every printing. And we can print just one book or 1000. So if, for instance, the Lake Washington Youth Soccer Association wants their version of Coaching 6, 7 & 8 Year Olds, we can do it. If the Franklin Pierce Club only needs 10 customized copies of 9, 10 & 11 Manual for the coaches of their small club, we can do that too!And if we come up with the newest game that children think is a blast, we can insert that in the very next print.Tony Waiters

Download or read book Basic Soccer Drills for Kids written by Chest Dugger and published by Abiprod Pty Ltd. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you looking to take your kids' soccer game (under 15 years) to the next level? Note: The author has coached teams to finals of national competitions - his teams have played at St George's Park, the home of English soccer, twice. He was invited to be a part of the expert panel when the Government re-wrote the curriculum for sport in school in 2010. He has coached across wide ages, but his main experience is ages 8-13, and within that 9-11. All of the drills are ones he has used; his teams were not selective, just normal school sides. All these drills can be adapted by a good coach for any age. Soccer is the most popular team sport in the world. It is perfect for kids to play. It is safe, simple and the skills required can be easily acquired. Becoming an expert player requires high levels of dedication, natural athleticism and innate skills. Any girl or boy can take to the sport and find enjoyment at their own level. It is for this reason that the game is escalating to such a rapid extent in the US. And it is why the need for coaches and players is growing continuously and rapidly. After all, who would not turn down the chance for their kids to keep physically fit, to allow their natural competitiveness to be channelled in an organized way, to be kept busy in a manner that is both productive and worthwhile? In addition to this, soccer develops dexterity, problem solving, collaboration, friendship, respect, self-discipline, team spirit and sportsmanship. All of which are life skills that are best acquired young. But there is so much to learn for youngsters who wish to become soccer players at a good club level. Shooting, defending, pressing, passing, controlling the ball, the laws of the game (even professionals struggle at times with the offside law as do, it sometimes seems, the referees themselves). And more important than all of these, children must learn about the spirit of soccer. Fair play and the sportsmanship mentioned above. This is especially so for today's youngsters facing all the pressures of growing up in a challenging world driven by the twin pressures of consumerism and social media. Here's What's Included In This Book: The 7 different kinds of skills that kids need to learn in soccer How Ball Control Skills escalate the level of your kids soccer game 6 Passing Drills that will improve team cohesion quickly Offensive Tips, Tricks and Drills that will make your team win 6 Drills that will make your kids get to defend in numbers and strength How to get kids to learn from the pros on TV 6 Drills that will make your kids get to defend in numbers and strength 5 Dribbling Tips and Drills that will make your kid stand out How the Mental Side of Soccer will improve your kids social and life skills What Parents must do during soccer practice and games Scroll up and Download Now
