Spring Break

Over spring break my project will really start to begin. I am going to be doing some coaching with the World Cup Soccer Camps that are taking place over spring break. I will be doing full days of coaching, from 9-4 (I think) the entire first week! I hope to understand more what I need to be doing as a coach this week. After this week I will hopefully be doing my course before I actually get back on the field and coach.

Things I like in coaches:

1. Nice, but not pushovers.

2. Strict enough to make you better, but don't dwell on the little things.

3. A good mix of fun drills/ scrimmages and technical drills.

4. Have a point to each drill. Don't just do a drill for the sake of doing a drill.

5. Have fun! Soccer is a fun sport, make drills and decisions based on wanting players to have fun!

Hopefully, if I am able to be what I like in a coach, I will do a good job!
