Coaching Small-Sided Soccer

Product Details
It has become widely recognized that a group of six year olds playing 11v11 on an adult size field is not the best way to introduce soccer to young players. Small-sided soccer (3v3, 4v4, 5v5, etc.) has been created to break the game down to its core; making it accessible to even the youngest children.

Coaching Small-Sided Soccer is a must for parents, coaches, league officials and referees because it explores every aspect of the game for young players from why small-sided soccer makes sense to coaching strategies, practice suggestions and age appropriate rules structures. Everyone involved with entry level soccer has a tremendous responsibility to make the experience as positive as possible because it will have an enduring affect on how those children view the game. Whether this experience is a glorious discovery or a boring and frustrating encounter is largely up to you.
