Hi All

Thought I'd set up a thread where we can share any essential coaching reading you come across or receive regularly.

I subscribe to a couple of digital services


Soccer Coach Weekly.....bite size chunks of info...drills for different ages...weekly PDF

http://www.coach-soccer.com/weekly/index.asp


Elite Soccer - product endorsed by the League Managers Association in UK - each month a coach from each of the 4 leagues contributes an exercise or series of exercises on different topics - plus some conditioning work

Monthly PDF...not cheap...but a good read and have taken a fair bit from this.

I'm waiting in anticipation for the KNVB book Decentric recommended to arrive from Amazon.

Anyone else got anything to recommend.

Andy

I can't remember recommending any KNVB books!!!

I thought the Dutch Soccer School was KNVB , but it appears to be a different organisation.

Andy could this thread from Grassroots be brought across?

It has a lot of articles and links to various sites with some good info.

Cheers

I think Tino Stoop's books are based or are part of the KNVB junior curriculum.

Advice anyone?

I believe your are right Arthur. I have a couple at home, one of which has a certain John van't schip taking the U/12's through some drills.

I emailed Raymond Verheijens website to see when his new book Periodisation in Football was due out. The reply I got was to expect some time in the new year.

Wasn't it you that recommended this?
