Download or read book Soccer Games written by Andrew Caruso and published by Reedswain Inc.. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The games presented in this book were designed to allow the ball and the game to be the true teachers. The aim is to get away from stagnant, boring line drills and restrictive exercises and give ownership of the game back to the players in the form of fun, age-appropriate exercises. In recent years, coaching at youth level, not only in soccer but in all sports, has trended toward specialization and over-coaching, which in effect has taken the joy of the game away and in many cases driven players away from the sport. These games will not only make your practices more fun, they will teach your players the skills and principles of soccer while allowing for creative expression.

Download or read book Practice Soccer At Home written by Chest Dugger and published by Abiprod Pty Ltd. This book was released on 2022-11-02 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you stuck at home or unable to get access to a soccer field? Are you worried about a lack of practice and reduced fitness? This book is your answer. Whether it's a pandemic caused by an extremely infectious pathogen or a harsh winter that causes 10 feet of snow to pile up on the soccer field, there are times when soccer takes a back foot. As we have discovered, soccer isn't more important than life or death, despite the claims to the contrary. So many coaching books require complex equipment, copious resources and fantastic facilities. In writing ‘Practice Soccer at Home’, we are seeking to offer a guide for those times when we train alone, in our back yard, with little more than a ball and our immediate environment. Undertaking this additional work is important whether we are professionals seeking to perfect our technique at the highest level (why else would top professionals build home gyms into their luxurious houses?) or, more relevantly for this book, keen amateurs or youth players looking to develop our own game. With jobs to hold down, school to attend and such like, it is unlikely that, in the best of times, we will get more than two formal training sessions per week, plus a match at the weekend. Realistically, it is likely to be just one session. In order to maximise our potential, we must do some work on our skills and endurance alone. The most practical place for many of us is to undertake this training at home. Why get in the car to drive to the gym or park if we have a back yard we could use instead? The answer is, of course, what to do in the back yard, and what to do it with! This book provides some answers to those questions.

Download or read book Soccer Drills for Kids Ages 8 12 written by Chest Dugger and published by Chest Dugger. This book was released on 2023-04-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you want your young soccer players to achieve success on the field, "Soccer Drills for Kids Ages 8-12" is the ultimate guide to help them get there.Soccer is the world's most popular sport, a global language understood from Europe to the Americas to Asia and Africa. Helping young players is vitally important if they are to get maximum enjoyment and benefit from their soccer. And it is massive fun for the coach who volunteers their time and their talent. Especially if those children in their team are at the best age to learn, from eight to twelve. Old enough to concentrate for long periods and co-ordinated enough to learn complex skills and techniques, young enough to retain enthusiasm and excitement for their sport. Chest Dugger's Soccer Drills for Kids Ages 8-12 provides a season long training programme, tackling all the key skills a young soccer player needs to learn. The ingredients of soccer are each covered either in their own, bespoke chapter, or as a part of another section of the book: passing, shooting, dribbling, learning about space, defending (in the context of other skills) and so forth. All of these ingredients are covered keeping in mind the nuances that relate to kids in this age. In addition there are chapters on mental health and well-being, including tips on working with young people who are neuro-diverse. Physical fitness is covered but in a practical way which maintains and enhances the natural fitness most kids enjoy. At the same time the chapter utilises the opportunity to build on this in ways which develop other soccer-based attributes as well. Tactics are examined, because children aged eight to twelve are beginning to understand the greater complexities of the game that this aspect brings, and which will help their own enjoyment of the sport. However, tactics are introduced in a simplified way, one which will improve their pleasure in playing soccer and not detract from their own acquisition of vital skills and techniques.
