Good starting place

I was asked to help coach my daughter's soccer team--a first for both of us. Not knowing where to start, this is what helped me get going. Good material on motivations and drills, etc. Definitely what I needed.

Coaching Girls

I have coached girls soccer for 8 years and I still found a few nuggets inside. I am really using the stuff on social issues and diet for teem girls.

excellent beginner's guide to soccer

Rating: Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

Easy to read and understand. Good pictures. Very helpful if you have never coached before or just want to improve your knowledge of coaching.

Must Have For All Coaches

Rating: Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

This is a must have book for soccer coaches, especially coaches of girls soccer. I also recommend it for coaches of boys since 98% of the material translates over. The book not only details performing specific skills, tactics and team management, but also covers team and individual motivation and correction styles. This is where the book becomes a little more specific to females then males, which is a good thing because there are a lot of male coaches that coach all girl teams, and they need to understand what motivates boys doesn't work with most girls. While boys tend to be motivated by accomplishment, girls are motivated by relationships. Understanding that will be rewarding and help you bond with your players and develop them as a team.

Read this book and you will dramatically improve your coaching!
