1 OUR PRIORITITIES: Our priorities need to move away from a Results Oriented Model to a Player Oriented Model. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? Less focus on untechnical play that produces results and greater focus on individual player development. Understand that our impact and preparation for most players will extend beyond the game of soccer. We must be prepared prior to practices to optimize the time, enjoyment, and player development that can occur during that time. We must do our best implement slant wise coaching philosophies but this also means that we as coaches cannot sacrifice the development of the majority for that of a few. (This goes both ways for developmentally advanced players and at older ages developmentally behind players). Your sweet spot should be when an exercise challenges some more than others but still everyone. We must give the games back to the kids. Our moments for making a major impact one the players are made during practice sessions. The games are for the enjoyment of the kids. As Coaches our FOCUS should be to use SOCCER to: Allow players to have fun and develop a passion for the game; To develop character, instill values, teach respect for authority and society; To develop confidence and a positive self image and help youth reach their potential in life. The goal is to use soccer as the vehicle to achieve this mission; To create a training atmosphere in which players learn the developmentally appropriate skills to facilitate their advancement within the game. Encourage the progression of developmentally advanced players through any available resources (i.e. Classic, Tournaments, Playing Up, ODP, etc.). As Coaches we must REFRAIN from: Using negative or demeaning verbal/non verbal language/actions toward players, parents, or referees; Encouraging player actions which do not encourage fair play and/or against the laws of the game (i.e. if they push you push them back); Sacrificing long term player development for short term team gain (i.e. playing a single player as keeper) or focusing too much on tactical which produces games results and too little on technical; Creating invisible boundaries at young ages which result in short term success but hinder longterm development.
