Promoting positivity: what challenges do you face?

Community Manager

Football’s fun – and we all want to keep it that way. But sometimes things get complicated.

Whether you’re struggling with parents, dealing with another loss or finding it hard to engage your team, we’ve all been there.

This is a chance to share, offload and maybe even help another coach!

Share your challenges in this thread, and let's tackle them together.

  • Early in my pathway ,it was parents . One important strategy is to get them involved positively with the team ,how we communicate on match days and how they can help and empower thier children when playing , but for this to work parents must try firstly to ask thier child do you want me cheering you on or do you want me to keep quite , dads giving tactical information before and after while in the car journeys , where some children just want to hear ,well done today great effort ? Educating parents is a must ,life is easier now

    for me its easier to find good things to talk about than mistakes that have happened.

    wether its good control, standing in the right position or even turning up.

    remember no one has a 100% goals to shots record, no one has a 100% tackling record but everyone has a 100% desire and be involved in football. As coaches we have to keep that desire and belief going for them.
