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.

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 The Coach s Guide to Teaching written by Doug Lemov and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2020-12-07 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mark of a great coach is a constant desire to learn and grow. A hunger to use whatever can make them better. The best-selling author of Teach Like a Champion and Reading Reconsidered brings his considerable knowledge about the science of classroom teaching to the sports coaching world to create championship caliber coaches on the court and field. What great classroom teachers do is relevant to coaches in profound ways. After all, coaches are at their core teachers. Lemov knows that coaches face many of the same challenges found in the classroom, so the science of learning applies equally to them. Unfortunately, coaches and organizations have a mixed level of understanding of the research and study of the science of learning. Sometimes coaches and organizations build their teaching on myths and platitudes more than science. Sometimes there isn’t any science applied at all. While there are thousands of books and websites a coach can consult to better understand technical and tactical aspects of the game, there is nothing for a coach to consult that explicitly examines the teaching problems on the field, the court, the rink, and the diamond. Until now. Intended to offer lessons and guidance that are applicable to coaches of any sporting endeavor including everyone from parent volunteers to professional coaches and private trainers, Lemov brings the powerful science of learning to the arena of sports coaching to create the next generation of championship caliber coaches.

Download or read book Rebound written by Cindy Kuzma and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-08-22 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a leading mental skills coach and contributing editor to Runner's World (US), this is a practical guide to building the psychological resilience that athletes need to recover from injury and rebound stronger. Injuries affect every athlete, from the elite Olympian to the weekend racer. In the moment, a traumatic crash, a torn muscle, or a stress fracture can feel like the most devastating event possible. While some athletes are destroyed by the experience, others emerge from their recovery better, stronger, and more confident than ever. The key to a swifter, stronger comeback is the use of mental skills: psychological tools that enable an athlete to take control of their recovery and ultimately use the experience to their advantage. Injury and other setbacks are inevitable – but with training, overcoming them skillfully and confidently is possible. This book will provide a clear, compelling explanation of psychological recovery from injury and a practical guide to building mental resilience. Weaving together personal narratives from star athletes, scientific research, and the specialized clinical expertise of mental skills coach Carrie Jackson Cheadle, it will contain more than 45 Mental Skills and Drills that athletes can use at every phase of their recovery process. These same strategies can help athletes who aren't currently injured reduce their vulnerability to injury, and enable any individual to reach new heights within their sport and beyond.
