Re: [Good, Bad and Ugly (about Soccer)] in need Of HELP

I have been training little kids between 5 and 7.  Since I grew up playing soccer and know the game, I enjoy playing with the kids, I divide the team in two and switch players in my team, so they all have the chance to be on my team, they all want to be in my team or the goalie.  When I started to train them, they gave me like 20 balls and I return 19, you need only one to play the game.  My advise is divide the team in two use a common goalie and whoever scores becomes the goalie.  The way little kids learn is by just playing and running around, I insist in passing the ball and the one that doesn't pass won't be on my team.
That definitely worked because my kids last summer were invincible on their category, very aggressive with the ball and were not afraid of the going after it, they scored as many goals as they wanted.

Subject: [Good, Bad and Ugly (about Soccer)] in need Of HELP

I am a first time coach of this game and the little ones need some
help ( well I do anyway). The childrens ages range from 4 to 6 in this
in door soccor league. I am running out of ideas to make there
practices fun and exciting as well as educational for them. It seems
that they are getting board of going around pillions passing the ball
back and forth exctra exctra. could someone point me in the right
direction.
   A web site for alternative games and drills for the little ones
involving the basics of soccor would be great.
   any ideas will help ( for the kids )

I've never coached kids that young, but there are lots of websites. Pick a search engine, type in "youth soccer drills", and stand back. Good Luck...

Hi Tammy, I have coached the little one's in my career. Having kids stand in line waiting for their turn to run the cone course is to say the least, "Boring"...
