Hello, I am currently coaching an u9's boys team and a majority of them are well behaved and want to play football, but the odd 1or2 tend to mess around at training which distracts the others. I have sat them out in training and spoken to the parents but still this goes on. Do I decide to kick them out of the team altogether or does anyone know the miracle cure to stop this happening?
Hi! If I were to coach step-over skills (Ronaldo style) to 4 and 5 years players, what warm ups should I start off with? Suppose those players have no or little balance/co-ordination? Step-over is an exciting skill to learn and would do wonder to a player's confidence.<br />Any advice?<br />Paul
I joined my sons football team last year as they were struggling for assistant coach's. However I'm working with someone that is insufferable. he manages two teams and is just generally all over the place. Late to games and training so I'm left to step up. wonders off during games or leaves early. The kids have done brilliantly last few weeks me and the other assistant have stepped in we really seen in a change in the kids. he turns up today and completely changes everything again. Our team lost terribly all the kids look confused as to what's going on and parents were angry. he left early and I'm left to speak to the parents myself. I poor my heart and soul in to this team but I feel I am going to have to walk away. Where do I go from here?
Disciplining for misbehaviour? 8-11 year olds, they dont really get bored because i know that sometimes that can be the cause. How or what can i apply a bit of strictness into the team.
