#32 How To Coach The Fundamentals (Properly) Shouting From The Sidelines
-
- Parenting
Are you a coach who still teaches dribbling, passing etc in isolation?
i.e. without defenders on in a game-situation?
Are you a parent who watches their child's football training sessions and sees nothing but kids dribbling around cones or passing in two's?
It has long being believed that we need to teach young players 'skills', 'the fundamentals' before we can put them into a match.
But there isn't any research or evidence to say this is the best way.
There is, however, loads of research into how the fundamentals can be developed in a way that actually makes kids better at football.
In this episode we look at that and explain the best way for children of all ages to be taught the basics and how it is time for more coaches (and parents) to see a better way of training junior footballers.
