Wish you had drills with specific coaching points that doubled your confidence by pointing out what to teach your team? Want to learn which drill best develops the "Big 3" soccer skills? Are you ever uncertain that your practices are not developing your players quickly enough? If any of these situations describe where you are at, then this book is for you. Making practices into an enjoyable experience for your players while also ensuring they are developing quickly is not an easy feat. Other soccer books on drills provide too little guidance and are not written to make it easy for you to reference the drills prior to a practice. The drills in this book have accompanying graphics for you to follow along easily. Sure, there are likely some drills you already enjoy doing with your team, but this book provides 17 drills covering the topics of passing and receiving, dribbling and foot skills, defending, and shooting and finishing. Also, this book details 6 games that players love to play. Please note that though this book does cover some of the technical aspects of soccer such as the proper form for passing and receiving a pass, it does not cover the steps of every technical topic. Other books in the Understand Soccer series have been created to cover more technical subjects and are also available on Amazon.com.

Why does learning these things matter? Well, building your soccer knowledge grows your coaching confidence.

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 Shoeless Soccer written by Carlo Celli and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-05 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soccer youth participation in the US declined by nearly 25% in recent years . The US men's national team went from the verge of a breakthrough to elimination from the 2018 World Cup. What's gone wrong with American soccer and what can be done to fix it? "The Shoeless Ones" was Pele's first team. The greatest footballer of all time had no cleats, shin guards, grass fields, cone drills, or heroic soccer-parent carpooling from practices, games, and tournaments. Heck, he learned to play with a sock stuffed with rags. Let's return football to its roots, to the blacktops, vacant lots, and patios where kids play and creativity flourishes. Let's undress the corrupted American version of soccer and shut down the club, travel pay to play system for a grassroots uprising so American kids can compete with the world's best. What we are doing now is not working, and even worse, everybody knows it. From what we've seen in our travels around the world and travails in America's youth soccer programs, once we start playing what we'll be calling Shoeless Soccer in honor of its stripped-down approach, the sky's the limit.

Download or read book Create a World Class Soccer Defense written by Chest Dugger and published by Abiprod Pty Limited. This book was released on 2019-10-13 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to learn how to improving your defensive game? Or looking for ways to solidify your team's defense? This book is your answer. As was said by a great soccer manager, 'Offense wins games; defense wins titles'. This is the case with every level of the professional and amateur game in all countries across the globe. Although there is a correlation between scoring the most goals and winning leagues, it does not seem to be quite as strong as having a watertight defense. So, we might conclude that while scoring goals thrills the crowd and helps a team to win, to be a champion it is even more important that the defense is as strong as it can possibly be. We hope that we have made our case. Defense is key to a team's success. But there is another important reason for this coaching book on a team's defensive unit. We can coach attacking play; set moves, individual skills and so forth can all help a team to create and score chances. However, goals often result from a touch of magic. The thirty-yard screaming shot; the piece of dribbling brilliance, the through pass hit with precision and vision. These are hard attributes to train. Or they can result from an error by the opposition. A mishit clearance, a goal keeping mistake, a positional defect or communication lapse. Consistent training and coaching can make a bigger impact with defense than can be with offensive players. Movement that becomes second nature, knowledge, technique, experience and positional awareness - allied to teamwork and communication - these are the elements that come together to produce a defense hard to breach. They are all factors which the coach can improve with their team through drills, team and individual coaching. It is true, if not often said, that attackers thrill the crowd while defenders win matches, at whatever level we play the game, from professional to Under ten teams playing on a Sunday morning. And it is there, with the match winning defense, that a coach earns his salt.

Download or read book Deliberate Soccer Practice written by Ray Power and published by Bennion Kearny Limited. This book was released on 2015-05-18 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soccer is in transition. There is now a growing trend away from 'drills', towards sessions that are more variable and which involve more decision making. But coaches have one burning question - how? The "Deliberate Soccer Practice" series shows coaches how to evolve their coaching sessions. It aims to ensure that players are 'cognitively engaged', with all players involved all of the time. It is about offering exercises which have players actively making regular contact with the ball, making decisions, changing decisions depending on what is happening, and moving to adapt to what the ball and other players are doing. That is the real game after all! Aimed at football coaches of all levels, but with a particular emphasis on coaches who work with youth players, "50 Passing & Possession Football Exercises to Improve Decision-Making" is comprised of 20 Technical Practices and 30 Possession Practices. They are carefully designed to be adaptable to suit the needs of the players you work with; to challenge them and give them decisions to make. The sessions look to make soccer complex and realistically difficult - no passing in queues from one cone to the next with no interference. Crucially, the exercises offer a means to accelerate player development effectively and enjoyably.
