Over twenty million Americans are playing the great game of soccer. This guide is for their coaches; it will help both the new and the experienced youth and high school coaches develop complete players, those who master the three fundamental elements of tech-nique, tactics, and function. There are many technique books on the market, and a few tactical books, but none which attempt to integrate technique, tactics, and function with accompanying game activities. As in state-of-the-art coaching for all sports, this integration is best developed through a system of progressions. Building upon a logical progression of exercises, activities, and shortsided games, this guide will help the coach to apply the princi-ples of play to the game of soccer and the development of soccer players. Too often these principles are overlooked by coaches; yet they are the very foundation of the game! Once a coach can view game action from this point of view he is capable of making important/relevant suggestions that relate to training and general principles. This facilitates player growth and game results.
For too long the traditional approach to coaching football has concentrated on the development of technical skills in isolation. However, the best footballers do not rely on technical ability alone. They possess game sense - the ability to solve the problems posed by the game and by their opponents. The ideas in this book will help develop this game sense from a young age, which - in the long term - will produce more intelligent football players. The model we have created and the games we have devised will hopefully generate enthusiasm in youngsters and encourage them to reach their full potential. A combination of stimulating activities and meaningful coaching will ensure players stay motivated and enjoy their training sessions. Quite simply they will play and learn - and learn to play.

Includes several outstanding exercises for coaches and players of all ages.
A soccer match is an ever-changing environment. With every movement of team-mates, opponents or the ball a new playing "problem" is created, demanding each player on and off the ball to formulate and carry out appropriate playing "solutions". Because most players rely almost exclusively on their dominant foot, their repertoire of solutions is obviously limited. Unfortunately, in many cases players are presented with training sessions that cater to their dominant side and their coaches rarely, if ever, train or even encourage the use of the weaker foot. In this book, Martin Bidzinski presents a training method that focuses on developing physically balanced players who are comfortable playing the ball with either foot to any direction of play, thus giving them the full 360 degree range of playing options.

What is Total Soccer Coaching?Contrary to the present coaching trend of separately carrying out conditioning training from technical and tactical training, the authors suggest that all components of soccer training should be coached at the same time.
