Coaches,
Go ahead and click the title above and it will provide you access to an excellent coaching website.
We have set up a member login for all our NSC coaches to take advantage of this coaching website, which provides drills for all age groups and abilities, exercises/stretching, nutrition, pro-coaching tips and many other coaching tools.
Below is some tips for new coaches from soccerspecific.com;
The following will help you along as you start preparing your sessions:
* Make it FUN!
* Have a few extra balls available, as well as cones to mark out your area!
* Allow players the opportunities to problem-solve!
* Think how you can maximize the number of touches each player will have in your session!
* Allow players the opportunity to be creative!
* Don’t talk too much –have the grids set up ahead of time –let them play and then explain your exercise within thirty seconds or less!
* The larger the size of the grid the easier it is for the players to have success: the smaller it is the more challenging!
* Be organized, be patient, stay positive, and have a backup plan!
Much of the information on the site is free to view. For the NSC member login and to view much more, please e-mail the DOC Eddie Hackett at coachejh@yahoo.com
