The start of the soccer season is an exciting time for young players. For volunteer coaches, on the other hand, it can be the start of a very stressful few weeks. What do I do at practice? Am I teaching the right things? How do I keep the kids active? For those looking for ideas on how to best fill practice time and improve young players' skills and understanding, the menu bar to the left has 12 practice games and a skill development circuit from OYSAN DOC Tom Turner; and a presentation by US Youth Soccer's Sam Snow on how to build a training session. Additional coaching help can be found at this OYSAN./org link. Good luck! | | | Offside?
