The u7s team that are out to win every game come hell or high water

Having had that experience yesterday my thoughts are the FA county need to supervise random games to ensure the ethos is upheld..... coach screaming and shouting at his side... constantly walk up the pitch and not staying in the tech area... Did either side take anything away from that match? Definitely not. I did though... firm in the Belief that how I coach is correct I’ll never be that coach I witnessed.

  • I don't coach from the sidelines with my U7 and got criticised by a parent for not coaching!

    The same parents that shout instructions when I have asked that they encourage only. It is a constant battle!

    unfortunately there are still dinosaurs out there , but with the key messages that most coaches are trying to apply ,allowing young players to make their own decisions and bearing in mind there maybe a thought process that involves 3-4 options at the time of the choice , and for a coach or parent to shout what to do do just takes this away , children have voices and should be aloud to choose what when where and how in there game of fun and learning , they are owners of this crucial time and should be aloud to experiment with out judgments, its challenging for coaches but continue this driving force ,situations will get better because of valued coaches like yourself .
