Coaching Little Kid Soccer: The easy, fun way to teach youth soccer skills to 3-year-old, 4-year-old, 5-year-old and 6-year-old preschoolers & kindergarteners
Are you interested in coaching your son or daughter's rec soccer team? Or maybe you've been drafted to coach the team with no idea how to go about it.
This guide is brief enough to read in a single sitting and explains everything you need to know -- even if you've never played or even watched a soccer game before.
With good sense and good humor, Coach Bryan Gilmer takes you step-by-step through running practices and managing games, all with an emphasis on activities and strategies that keep young children continuously engaged and cooperative. His innovative approach ensures that practices and games will feel like playtime to the kids, who will laugh and have fun while learning the underlying principles of dribbling, shooting, teamwork, and basic offensive and defensive soccer strategy.
Coach Bryan's sensitivity to the particular 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 handle inappropriate behavior, injuries, and frustration and to encourage resiliency, cooperation, sportsmanship, and a healthy lifelong love of exercise.
