I know I was pissed last night

Do Brett and Travis take the penalties, free kicks, corners? Are they captains?We are going through this with our Ezekiel aged 6.
There are 2 teams of mixed ability. Last week he was a sub for 20 mins of the 40 mins match. I noticed that Brett aged 7 and Travis aged 6 didn’t appear to be substituted very often. Amazingly enough, Brett and Travis are related to the managers!
Looks like it will be u7sWhat age group are you looking to coach? Make sure you work on their first touch frequently. First touch is so important and movement.
Try and make coaching drills relevant to what happens in actual games. The amount of drills I did as a youngster especially shooting ones that would never occur in a game was ridiculous.

Win the ball, give it to a team mate, move. It's a simple as that
My lad plays u12s football and the coaches are making constant,. rolling subs so that each player plays 3 or 4 different positions each game. It doesn't help the team at all and more often than not, everyone runs up front leaving the keeper exposed.
Give each kid a position, let them learn how to play that position. Keep it simple. Pass and move

Yeah, I get that but I don't think it beneficial to rotate them so many times during a game. I guess it could be a directive from the clubit's recommended that kids are rotated in various positions as it gives them a more rounded skill set. Too often coaches select players based on the characteristics that they have when they're 8. The tallest player goes at the back, fastest plays left wing etc. That can all change in 8-10 months and then they have to adapt. If you've got a player that has played several positions for 2-3 years then they should be good at reading the game, picking a pass, making a tackle, they should have good technique to score goals and be comfortable in/out of possession because they've spent 2 or 3 years working on different things every time they've been brought on.

What you've said is all Dutch to me.it's recommended that kids are rotated in various positions as it gives them a more rounded skill set.

So if parents don't volunteer, where are these coaches meant to come from exactly? Without these volunteers, kids can't play. There is 120 teams at u8 alone in all the leagues.Youth “coaching” in this country is killing the game. The FA have created a culture of box ticking rather than improving any quality.
The simplest way of improving the whole kids grassroots system is banning parents from managing sides - I’d go further and ban parents from the sidelines too!
Let the kids play, enjoy it and improve - the best teacher is the game itself.
Hopefully the kids will be in a environment where they can play and experiment - be that coach not the egotistical, nepotism driven prick that thinks he’s Pep or Klopp!
The FA Level 1 is excellent and I got much more out of it than i imagined i would. One message that stuck with me was regarding equal playing time and doing drills to keep kids involved rather than 'knockout' type drills. The coach said that he was no good at Maths in school, but he wouldn't have got any better at it if the teacher would have only let him in the classroom for the last 5 mins of each lesson. Brilliant analogy, in my opinion.I coach my sons u8 side. Love it. Been involved for a year and a half now and can't imagine not doimg it. I originally volunteered, as I would probably be that parent that says too much and does the coaches head in do your level 1 coaching asap. I waited 6 months and it changed the way I looked at it all. It's very tempting to almost guide the kids through games. I was what the tutor called a "Sat nav" coach. Didn't mean to be or intend to be one, I was just that keen and desperate for them to do well. Encourage them, and give instructions, but ultimately you have to let the kids make their own decisions and learn from mistakes. Instead of telling them what they should do, ask them "What could you have done there" etc. It's called none competitive football at that age, but let's be honest, anyone who has been to a game knows it isn't. Need to keep it as fun as possible though and be approachable to the kids. They are like sponges and take it all in. Be positive and if someone does something well, make a fuss over them. It can take over your life at times, but personally I absolutely love it.
Level 1 just opened my eyes totally. Thought I was doing right by the kids almost guiding them through games. Literally over night I changed. I was in the middle of every training session before, where now I step back, let the kids play then assess and speak to them after, asking questions on what was good, what could we do next time etc. I'm still pretty vocal on match days, but more all about encouraging their decision making. Played a couple 7 a side friendlies recently looki g ahead to u9 and all change again. Kids need guidance and coaching, just the right kind. I certainly don't have all the answers mindThe FA Level 1 is excellent and I got much more out of it than i imagined i would.

I also completely agree a posing questions to the kids, rather than instructions. E.g where is the space?, what could you have done differently?, etc.

That's just Russel foster as well. Gateshead and pinpoint, you're talking over 200 teams and ober 1000 kids need these volunteers.
That's just tyne and wear alone ban parents. Aye mint idea.
