Good on you for putting your hand up to coach. We hope that you get a lot out of the experience. Try to maximize this by attending coaching courses. I know this seems like a drag but if you find yourself fronting up to the kids with some uncertainties, attending a course will give you confidence and ideas and increase your own enjoyment. Let's face face it - you are going to be spending 2-3 hours a week on this for the next few years....why not spend an hour or two making it better for yourself? Coaching courses not only give you technical expertise but help you with some underlying philosophical stuff about how to coach kids and also answer that question" How do I relate to a bunch of 7 year olds?" Courses are now being offered through the JMC. These courses are invaluable (especially as there will be a push to ‘badge’ coaches in 2010.) The courses will be offered later this year..If you are interested please contact either myself on 307 8660 or Kenny McCracken on 0272724073 We'll
be posting stuff up here from time to time but for now here are a
few links that can take you to other coaching resources.
Waikato/Bay of Plenty Football Ass. This is the association we belong to. Check here for courses, rules and other boring stuff FIFA Supposedly the front of all soccer wisdom. You can download a complete set of rules here but it is a 2.2Mb pdf file so don't try on dial up Some coaching help sites - let me know if they are helpful (or the links fail) and I will post recommendations up here Soccer for Parents. World Class Coaching Joe Soccer.com Footy 4 Kids Say Soccer.org Better Soccer More Fun World of Soccer.com US Youth Soccer.org . |
