Are you looking to take your kids' soccer game to the next level? Check out this guide for youth soccer players (under 15 years) used by coaches, parents and players alike. Soccer is the most popular team sport in the world. It is perfect for kids to play. It is safe, simple and the skills required can be easily acquired. Becoming an expert player requires high levels of dedication, natural athleticism and innate skills. Any girl or boy can take to the sport and find enjoyment at their own level. It is for this reason that the game is escalating to such a rapid extent in the US. And it is why the need for coaches and players is growing continuously and rapidly. After all, who would not turn down the chance for their kids to keep physically fit, to allow their natural competitiveness to be channelled in an organized way, to be kept busy in a manner that is both productive and worthwhile? In addition to this, soccer develops dexterity, problem solving, collaboration, friendship, respect, self-discipline, team spirit and sportsmanship. All of which are life skills that are best acquired young. But there is so much to learn for youngsters who wish to become soccer players at a good club level. Shooting, defending, pressing, passing, controlling the ball, the laws of the game (even professionals struggle at times with the offside law as do, it sometimes seems, the referees themselves). And more important than all of these, children must learn about the spirit of soccer. Fair play and the sportsmanship mentioned above. This is especially so for today's youngsters facing all the pressures of growing up in a challenging world driven by the twin pressures of consumerism and social media. The 7 different kinds of skills that kids need to learn in soccer How Ball Control Skills escalate the level of your kids soccer game 6 Passing Drills that will improve team cohesion quickly Offensive Tips, Tricks and Drills that will make your team win 6 Drills that will make your kids get to defend in numbers and strength How to get kids to learn from the pros on TV 6 Drills that will make your kids get to defend in numbers and strength 5 Dribbling Tips and Drills that will make your kid stand out How the Mental Side of Soccer will improve your kids social and life skills What Parents must do during soccer practice and games Even if you've never played or watched soccer in your life before, you and your kids will gain a significant amount of knowledge from this book!

Are you stuck at home or unable to get access to a soccer field? Are you worried about a lack of practice and reduced fitness? This book is your answer. Whether it's a pandemic caused by an extremely infectious pathogen or a harsh winter that causes 10 feet of snow to pile up on the soccer field, there are times when soccer takes a back foot. As we have discovered, soccer isn't more important than life or death, despite the claims to the contrary. So many coaching books require complex equipment, copious resources and fantastic facilities. In writing ‘Practice Soccer at Home’, we are seeking to offer a guide for those times when we train alone, in our back yard, with little more than a ball and our immediate environment. Undertaking this additional work is important whether we are professionals seeking to perfect our technique at the highest level (why else would top professionals build home gyms into their luxurious houses?) or, more relevantly for this book, keen amateurs or youth players looking to develop our own game. With jobs to hold down, school to attend and such like, it is unlikely that, in the best of times, we will get more than two formal training sessions per week, plus a match at the weekend. Realistically, it is likely to be just one session. In order to maximise our potential, we must do some work on our skills and endurance alone. The most practical place for many of us is to undertake this training at home. Why get in the car to drive to the gym or park if we have a back yard we could use instead? The answer is, of course, what to do in the back yard, and what to do it with! This book provides some answers to those questions.

If any of these situations describe where you are at, then this book is for you. Making practices into an enjoyable experience for your players while also ensuring they are developing quickly is not an easy feat. Other soccer books on drills provide too little guidance and are not written to make it easy for you to reference the drills prior to a practice.

Sure, there are likely some drills you already enjoy doing with your team, but this book provides 17 drills covering the topics of passing and receiving, dribbling and foot skills, defending, and shooting and finishing. Also, this book details 6 games that players love to play.
