So we teamed up with the highly experienced, Rob Sherman – one of the best coach educators in the world, to deliver a 100% online course that you can complete from home, in your own time, on any device. When we looked around for other courses for first time coaches, many of them take 40-120 hours to complete and may have limited dates, or require travel to attend.

And for some first time coaches, there are other challenges, like communicating clearly with your players, dealing with difficult parents, or just making sure the kids have fun.

You probably don’t have a lot of time to plan your training sessions, or to create new activities that will keep your players engaged.

If this sounds like you, then read on or head straight over to view our soccer coaching courses. These coaches don’t have the time to spend hours and hours searching for answers online about how to effectively coach soccer. We also know that these coaches are likely to be time-poor they probably work a full-time job and have children, which may be how they began coaching in the first place. We know that the majority of coaches out there are volunteers – first time coaches, who may not have a background in coaching youth soccer.

So we put together an introduction to soccer coaching course which we believe is missing from the world of coach education. Coaching kids soccer can be challenging, in order to help the majority of coaches (and therefore, the majority of players), we need to arm volunteer coaches with everything they need to get started putting on great sessions for 6-12 year old players.
