Fun and creativity with some competition are key for success:

To ensure that ALL young athletes feel excited for every session, fun is a major ingredient coaches need to add and in large amounts.

As a coach/manager, knowing that your participants are possibly some what younger than you and knowing what they find “fun” is a tough nut to crack, that being said you need to be enthusiastic and engaging as possible.

Its likely that as an adult you may remember a old school teacher or coach from years gone by who was slightly more eccentric. They stick in your memory because of the colourful ways they challenged you, communicating knowledge and developing your skills in the process.

Enthusiasm is infectious and silly can often be a good thing. It allows participants to broaden their imagination and enjoy the session even more.

All that being said, some competition is a healthy way to boost the fun factor especially in youth football. Introduce games into every aspect of your coaching session and participants will strive to match their team mates and improve themself in the process.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

⚽️Always be positive.

⚽️Do not talk down to players.

⚽️Listen & understand who you are coaching.

Remember ALWAYS try to deliver coaching sessions where your players have a ball each, To help maximise the amount of practice, the amount of go’s and the amount touches players have in a session especially in the winter months.

Small sided games and overload sessions are perfect for the winter months to keep players warm and moving.

THE FIVE TOP WAYS A COACH CAN MAXIMISE PLAYER POTENTIAL:

1- Keep it simple (allot of young players are pushed to hard to soon and 90% of the time are having to practice complicated moves and tactics before they can even pass a ball accurately. Take how ever long needed to get your players into a rhythm before moving on and making practice more challenging.)

2- Motivate (players know when they are struggling and they dont need you their coach to tell them they are not performing well. What they need from you as a coach is praise and make it genuine, players are not stupid they know when it deserved and when it isn’t.)

3- Players need to play (not one of your players will improve if they are not given the chance on match day. It can be hard because its natural to do what you may think is best for the team however a equal playing policy is key regardless of the match situation.)

4- Improve yourself first (All of us want to be good coaches therefore what is most important is that we are always willing to adapt and learn from each other. Watch other coaches, Attend as many courses and invite feedback from parents players and peers.)

5- Patience (if you do all of these things you will be in a better position to help your players. However success is relative. For a child with poor coordination, one accurate pass is success. For a child who finds it hard to make friends, just being in a team is success. You as a coach have the power and opportunity to make the “weak ones” feel special. Its a huge responsibility. And one we must all try to live up to.)
