SOCCER HOMEWORK

Nobody likes homework, but what about Soccer homework?

Whenever i get home from running a practice session I always check out You Tube to find a video I can send to the parents of my team.  Typically I will try and find a skill, dribbling practice or type of pass to send them and will ask them to help their kids practice for 10 minutes a night and then the following week I will start the session with a revision of the homework, giving the kids a chance to show their new skill.

This is a great pointer to see what kids in your team have the desire to learn.  When Lionel Messi was a young boy with a football and all that talent he could have sat at home at night watching TV or more likely he was out in the park or street practicing and honing his skills.

Give your team Soccer homework, you will see the benefit!  Below is a typical example of what is available on You Tube for free!


Happy Coaching!
