Download or read book How to Be a Footballer written by Peter Crouch and published by Random House. This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Very funny on almost every page, wonderfully self-deprecating and very sharp on the ludicrous behaviour of the modern player' - Sunday Times 'The funniest man in British sport' - Metro **A Sunday Times Sports Book of the Year** **Shortlisted for the National Book Awards** **Longlisted for the Telegraph Sports Book Awards Autobiography of the Year** You become a footballer because you love football. And then you are a footballer, and you're suddenly in the strangest, most baffling world of all. A world where one team-mate comes to training in a bright red suit with matching top-hat, cane and glasses, without any actual glass in them, and another has so many sports cars they forget they have left a Porsche at the train station. Even when their surname is incorporated in the registration plate. So walk with me into the dressing-room, to find out which players refuse to touch a football before a game, to discover why a load of millionaires never have any shower-gel, and to hear what Cristiano Ronaldo says when he looks at himself in the mirror. We will go into post-match interviews, make fools of ourselves on social media and try to ensure that we never again pay £250 for a haircut that should have cost a tenner. We'll be coached and cajoled by Harry Redknapp, upset Rafa Benitez and be soothed by the sound of an accordion played by Sven-Goran Eriksson's assistant Tord Grip. There will be some very bad music and some very bad decisions. I am Peter Crouch. This is How To Be A Footballer. Shall we?

Download or read book Doing Statistics With SPSS written by Alistair W Kerr and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2002-03-08 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `This book is to be commended, particularly, for putting the tool of statistics into the familiar context of a research study. In so doing it emphasizes the neglected pre-analysis stages of a research study. Indeed the performing of a data analysis, this book reminds us, should be the mere icing on an already well cooked cake′ - Psychology Learning & Teaching Doing Statistics With SPSS is derived from the authors′ many years of experience teaching undergraduates data handling using SPSS. It assumes no prior understanding beyond that of basic mathematical operations and is therefore suitable for anyone undertaking an introductory statistics course as part of a science based undergraduate programme. The text will: enable the reader to make informed choices about what statistical tests to employ; what assumptions are made in using a particular test; demonstrate how to execute the analysis using SPSS; and guide the reader in his/her interpretation of its output. Each chapter ends with an exercise and provides detailed instructions on how to run the analysis using SPSS release 10. Learning is further guided by pointing the reader to particular aspects of the SPSS output and by having the reader engage with specified items of information from the SPSS results. This text is more complete than the alternatives that usually fall into one of two camps. They either provide an explanation of the concepts but no instructions on how to execute the analysis with SPSS, or they are a manual which instructs the reader on how to drive the software but with minimal explanation of what it all means. This book offers the best elements of both in a style that is economical and accessible. Doing Statistics with SPSS will be essential reading for undergraduates in psychology and health-related disciplines, and likely to be of invaluable use to many other students in the social sciences taking a course in statistics.

Download or read book Soccer Coaches Perfect Training for Youth Soccer Players 5 to 10 years written by Wolfgang Schnepper and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-01-18 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book we describe over 80 exercises for little footballers ( 5 to 10 years ). Rules of conduct and principles towards the little footballers are discussed first. Coaches have a great responsibility towards the children. Never before have so many boys and girls of preschool age played football. That`s why training for this age group must be fun for the first moment. Contents and methods from the youth sector may not be adopted for the children, otherwise the number of football-playing children will shrink. The first impressions of football training are crucial for the children. In case of incompetent behaviour of the trainer, parents or caretakers get little athletes a first negative impression, have bad experiences and in the worst case they develop an aversion to any football club. Here we recognize the great importance of child-friendly behavior from coaches and caretakers. Furthermore, the trainers need subject-specific knowledge and a high level of knowledge of human nature. The footballing aspect must not be in the foreground for very young children. The training refers to running, jumping throwing, ball games and games of various kinds. The fun factor and the community are in the foreground. The children need to feel that they are needed by the community. Every cild receives an equal amount of praise and recognition from trainers, parents and caretakers. The performance of the children is not yet so important. Competitive games must have a great fun factor, mainly played and trained in small groups. Children don`t just need footballs, pylons and slalom poles. For a versatile development they need different balls, easy climbing course, playgrounds, swings and slides, gymns with balls and gym mats, foam balls for different games and much more. This versatile sporting activity and the playing in groups is essential for the motorical development, training of social behaviour and empathy, prevention of postural weakness and to promote a sporting and human personality. The exercises and games must not to be difficult for the small children. Otherwise the children tire to quickly. The range of exercises is wide-ranging, must do without long explanation and always arouse the imagination and curiosity of the children.
