Manage episode 398658587 series 3482199
In the second episode of the new series Pez & Geoff answer questions sent in by parents and coaches along with discussing some of the chapters in Pez's new book (Did You Win, Did You Score...?) The questions are listed below.
I recently started coaching my boys team who will move up to U7s this year. There seems to be a lot of pressure from people saying that they need to be playing loads of summer tournaments to ‘get them ready’ for their first season, but I’m just not sure it’s the right thing for them and they can get the same development playing small games together as a team. I don’t want to hold them back or for them to get hammered every week come September either as that won’t be enjoyable so wondered what your views were? Book chapter 142 - What is skill and what is technique...? Neither myself or my partner come from a football background so everything is new for us. Our son is an U9 with a local grassroots team and has progressed really well over the past year. I hear a lot of parents talk about the need, if we’re serious about his development, to play for two teams and to join an elite league. We’re confused about the whole thing and really need some guidance. Book chapter 29 - Avoid chasing the dream. I recently put a post on a Facebook group asking if anyone could recommend a 1 to 1 coach for my son to help increase his confidence. Lots of names were suggested, and people tagged, and now I’m not sure who the best one will be. What should I be looking for? Book chapter - 62 - Private coaching and one-to-one coaching - avoid the cowboys. Please send any questions you want answered/discussed to Pez at perry@pezzazstreetsoccer.com or 07818225592
