US Youth Soccer - Responsible Coaching Awards

Posted by Tim McGuinness on February 24, 2009 at 2:07pm
This seems like a contest that should get some last minute promotion. From Twitter: USYouthSoccer: Final days to nominate a coach you know, http://www.usyouthsoccer.org/news/story.asp?story_id=4174 Here's the clip from their US Youth Soccer site: Do you know a coach who demonstrates a commitment to excellence on and off the field? US Youth Soccer and Liberty Mutual seek to recognize and honor these important individuals who volunteer their time to help make our children's youth sports experience rewarding. These coaches are often the unsung local heroes – teaching lessons through youth sports that translate into life. That's why we established the Responsible Coaching Awards – to recognize and celebrate these valuable coaches. Tell us about a coach you know that deserves recognition for his or her commitment to responsibility in youth sports. But time is running out! Nominations are only being accepted until February 28!

UNC Women Add a 19th NCAA Championship

Posted by Tim McGuinness on December 7, 2008 at 9:30pm
The UNC women added their another NCAA Championship to their incredible history – this is their 19th championship in the 27 years of the tournament. They beat Notre Dame 2-1. Notre Dame was trying to be the first team other than UNC to go undeated and started fast by scoring 16 seconds into the game. UNC has recorded 4 undefeated seasons. Amazon has some good book from UNC coach Anson Dorrance that might be of interest. I’ll soon have a book suggestion section, but this will do for today: The Vision Of A Champion: Advice And Inspiration From The World's Most Successful Women's Soccer Coach The Man Watching: A Biography of Anson Dorrance, the Unlikely Architect of the Greatest College Sports Dynasty Ever DVDs: Soccer - Training Championship Players and Teams Anson Dorrance Legacy Soccer Clinic

starting as a goalkeeping coach

Posted by steven allen on February 2, 2009 at 4:30am
this is my second season as a coach, and my first as a goalkeeping coach. i have managed to fall into coaching by accident really. last year i joined a local team with the idea of just keeping fit,but managed to somehow end up taking weekly training with absolutely no clue what i was doing. this year i decided to do things right and to train myself as a coach. as a player i was a goalkeeper, so therefore goalkeeping coaching seems to be the way forward for me(go with what you know and all that).now again this season i have managed to fall in with a junior team (u14s) and i am running a weekly goalkeepers clinic. problem is that every week i am getting more keepers that want to train and learn the crazy gracefull art of a goalkeeper, and i am now struggling to provide new and intertaining ways to help these young guys to be the best that they can be.i have no professional qualifications myself (as yet!), and am building training plans from what i can glean from a number of websites and friends, but i seem to have hit a wall, as there is limited resources on the internet, and i am starting to repeat previous exercises from earlier in the year.So my plea to everyone is for any help that anyone can provide, whether it is training drills or writing session plans, or any little nuggets of wisdom that can passed on.i believe these young boys deserve the chance to reach their full potential and maybe become succesfull footballers in the future, and also for me to become the best that i can be as a coach.I look forward to hearing from you all, and all advice will be gratefully recieved.Thanks Steven.
