Loss of confidence with ex academy player

Sam Taylor

I’m 18 and an assistant coach for u14s, a lad recently joined whi has been dropped from an academy and he is struggling with confidence in games but excels in training. I played football at an academy level for 8 years up until last year when i was dropped so i know how he feels. However i never regained confidence so I struggle to advise him
How can i help him regain confidence?

thanks

    Hi Sam

    i think just striking up a conversation with him about your own story

    maybe he can resonate with his own start in football.

    once that relationship has developed then maybe work on his confidence on believing in himself again where matches are concerned.

    there is always a place for someone, somewhere in football as long as they can feel a part of it

    all the best
