coaching confidence

It is like having a coach in your pocket—good parents who want to support their kids but have no idea where to start. Training is efficient yet easy to follow through to completion, and kid-friendly reminders to get kids active mean training is fun, not work. I was most impressed by making complicated rules (such as offsides) easy to get across to kids. It is not just about technique; it is about teaching kids to be tough-minded, to work in a team, and to instill an optimum atmosphere in soccer. Whether training an organized club or just playing around in the backyard with your kid, this guide is fun to follow through to completion.

Supporting your kids

Soccer can honestly be super stressful for kids, and they need our support. This is awesome because even though I knew little about coaching and soccer in general, it gave me the tools to really know how to help my kid.

Great lessons for coaches

This audiobook provides great tips and strategies for coaches or parents of future soccer stars. I really appreciated the 3 secrets to creating balanced training sessions to make sure they're both fun and educational for the kids. Also, I liked the emphasis on how important it is to start building mental toughness from a young age through coaching and parenting cues. A great resource for any new coach or a parent that's wanting to learn more as their kid starts soccer.

A great jump-start

My two nephews are still quite you, but they are getting obsessed with soccer. I had no background, so I got this to better understand what they're doing. It's led to great conversations. They think I'm an expert. Excellent narrator too.
