Liverpool FC to take a part in Champions League season 2005/2006 as the
defending champions. Although Liverpool FC do not qualify based on the
local competition (i.e. English Premier League), we think that
Liverpool FC should be given a chance to defend the title. Thus, to all
Liverpool FC supporters around the world, please sign this petition to

Thank you to everyone for their suggestions!!!  Keep them coming!!
You'll never know how helpful you've been!!  But oooppps  I forgot
to mention my kids are 8-9 years old!!

Suggestions off the top of my head:

Some other websites:
FineSoccer.com - also has several newsletters
SoccerRom.com - This site is $34.95 per year but is worth every penny to me.
It has hundreds of drills professionally presented and searchable by topic,
skill level, etc. There are also plan libraries for different topics.

Books:
Go to the library or book store and look at some basic books. The Dummies
book is good.

Watch games on TV or local HS or college

See if there is training given locally for coaches.
My program will cover the small cost of a one or two day program. Talk to
other coaches and see where they learned.

Make a plan. Don't try to wing it at practice.

Let me know what age group you are working and I can suggest something more
specific.

Pass the ball to an open teammate.  If you are double or triple teamed, you
have a teammate that is open.  Keep your head up and look for him.
Sometimes your best shot on-goal is to give up the
shot, and give it to a teammate.  Soccer is a team sport

Hello,

     I'm a soccer player in my school. Whenever I am attacking, I
have difficulty dribbling inside the penalty because of all the
defenders. I can't seem to get a clear shot and more often than not,
I lose the ball. Can anyone give me any suggestions?

-Lorenzo

could you help me?

When in the open field, two opposing players can both challenge for a
header.  Most of the time as long as both are going for the ball,
there is no foul.  I have been told many times that the 'official'
rule is you have to jump straight up and be going for the ball.  If
you do not jump straight up or are not going for the ball, then there
is a foul called on you.  What is the official rule regarding two
people challenging for a header?  I have seen many people get fouls
because they came running in...even though they were going for the
ball and actually got the ball!

I am a new soccer coach. I was the boys' AC last year. This year
when we couldn't get a girls' head coach, I took it on. I love
soccer at the high school level but never played--never heard of it
when I was a boy--and I would love to continue coaching it. But, the
time I'm taking learning the game,let alone learning how to coach
it, is costing winnings for my teams. Is there an english speaking
traing camp/workshop here in Germany? I teach for Wuerzburg High
School. It is a DoDDS school.

Hi,
My name is Tom Simec and I am a student of translation (ger / eng)
from Slovenia. For my degree I am working on a comprehensive soccer
glossary (slo-eng-ger) and I have come across some problems. I hope
You can help me. I have a few questions:

- is ELECTRIC BOARD the right expression for the device the fourth
official uses to indicate substituions and injury time?
- I have come across the term HEADING DUEL; does also the terms GROUND
DUEL (or duel on the ground) exist?
- some german soccer statistisc also include data on the duels a
player has won/lost; I would like to know whether it is possible to
name a statistics cathegory DUELS LOST and DUELS WON (eg: duels lost:
57)?
- also statistics: is it correct to say e.g. Rivaldo had 56 BALL
CONTACTS during the last match?
- a questions regarding techniques: what is the trick called the
Brazilian players (Ronaldo, Denilson) perform when they throw one leg
around the ball? Is it correct to describe it as FEINTING WITH
THROWING ONE LEG AROUND (OVER) THE BALL?
- if we divide the game into phases (offence and defence phase), can
we call the the final offence phase FINISH OF THE ATTACK (=shot at
goal)

Thank You in advance for Your replies.

Hi, I'm from a school who only wins a football game once every 5
years if that in NEW YORK, All the other schools have soccer I'd like
to start a team I only have until the 20th. of this Month to go to
the board meeting with the 32 kids that signed the petition I made
for starting a boy's Varsity Soccer Team, I have 32 commited guys in
grades 9-12 and I wanted to know What we need for a team next year?
and what the costs will range from?



A Soccer loving Guy,

Thank You!
:)

Me too! My U-10 Girls team leave a large hole in the middle and that is where
they lose it. We play 7 v 7, so I play 2 triangles where the there is 2-2-2, but
the 2 mid-field play fron mid and rear mid to help fill the hole in the middle,
but then they wind up running with the wrong group. Any stratagy to help with
this would be apprecited

Subject: [Good, Bad and Ugly (about Soccer)] Midfield Dilemma


I coach U10 and U13 teams - and both have weaknesses in "controlling the
middle of the field".   We have good action on the very offensive end - and
also on the very defensive end - But our mid fielders - cannot seem to 1)
run the entire field 2) keep from getting caught too far upfield.  Its tough
to get 10 year old kids to run the entire field (we play a 3-2-3).

Any suggestions?(practice drills or game strategy?)

Our team played one of the better teams in the U-12 boys league to a
1-1 tie on Sat. and then on Sunday played one of the weaker teams.
We lead at half 3-1 and lost 4-3!  We did keep our starters in the
2nd half but they just seemed unable to finish it...any ideas?
Perplexed...

Hi

I am a new coach for U-8 soccer.  I didnt ask to be, but only wanted to assist.  But, to my chagrin, I got the job as coach with no assistant. My question: is there a video or CD that I can purchase to give me ideas on games or drills to use during practice?  Thank you in advance.  Michelle Cole 

I am currently re-entering the game after a shamful six year
leave...I was all state in NJ in 1996 and blew an oppurtunity to play
in college because I thought that doing drugs would be cooler...I was
wrong, now I realize that my one true love, soccer, is all I need.
My skills are still phonominal, I am just looking for some individual
training tips.  I have been training everyday by myself, and am just
looking for a good program to follow...thank you

Ok im palying soccer at high school level and im trying to get my
skills up to college level play cause that is one of my goals since i
was little. I would like to know if any one out there know what type
of skills colleges look for and what drills i can practive on my own
to get better and impress the college coach.
    I would also like to know how to do thoses crosses that curves to
one direction. I see them cross like that on mls games to aviod a
certain person but i would like to start practiving that now. Who
knows that might help me get onto a college soccer team i hope so.

             Thx,
             -Brad-
