COCACHING FOOTBALL PROFESSIONAL

Author: Dr. Biru Mal

As coaches, we expect much from our players, and players, in turn, desire much more from their coaches. It is generally observed that the experiences of the players and the methods of coaching used by those who coached them are carried into their coaching methodology when they become coaches later. Most veteran coaches have relied on only one educational resource - a former coach. If the former coaches had weaknesses, those shortcomings probably remained in the next generation of coaches also. Coaching football players and teams presents a particular challenge to new coaches. Unlike other sports, football throughout the world has a well-developed club system, where professionals fight for glory and success.

If you are not, do not worry. This book will be one of the good sources for your learning and planning of training programs for players under your charge.
