Book Coaching 6  7 and 8 Year Olds

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

Book Basic Soccer Drills for Kids

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

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coaching elementary kids at soccer is a little more complicated than coaching preschoolers, but with the approach detailed in this book, any caring adult can do it well. Building on the approach in his popular "Coaching Little Kid Soccer," Coach Bryan Gilmer sets out his step-by-step method for leading teams of kindergarten through third-grade soccer players in a volume slim enough to be read in a single sitting but with enough ideas to keep your team growing at its own pace over several soccer seasons. Coach Bryan takes you step by step through running practices and managing games, all with an emphasis on age-appropriate activities and strategies that keep children continuously engaged and cooperative- -- and help them win. His approach ensures that time on the soccer field is fun and challenging for the kids while teaching them the underlying principles of dribbling, shooting, teamwork, and offensive and defensive soccer strategy. The focus on helping each player make sound decisions in every role on the team helps children develop as well-rounded players and achieve success now. And the concepts they learn will continue to serve them well if they choose to advance to higher levels of soccer. Coach Bryan's sensitivity to the developmental abilities and needs of this age group sets this guide apart from the dozens of other general youth soccer coaching guides. You'll learn how to manage behavior, injuries, and frustration and to encourage resiliency, positive perseverence, cooperation, sportsmanship, and a healthy lifelong love of exercise.
