AYSO Vision Statement
To provide world class youth soccer programs that enrich children’s lives
Mission Statement To develop and deliver quality youth
soccer programs, which promote a fun, family environment based on the AYSO Philosophies…
AYSO Philosophies
– Open Registration – Everyone Plays – Balanced Teams – Positive Coaching – Good Sportsmanship – Player Development…
AYSO Philosophies:
Everyone Plays • Our program’s goal is for kids to play
soccer—so we mandate that every player on every team must play at least half of every game.
Balanced Teams • Each year we form new teams as evenly
balanced as possible—because it is fair and more fun when teams of equal ability play…
AYSO Philosophies Open Registration • Our program is open to all children between 4
and 19 years of age who want to register and play soccer. Interest and enthusiasm are the only criteria for playing.
Positive Coaching • Encouragement of player effort provides for
greater enjoyment by the players and ultimately leads to better-skilled and better-motivated players…
AYSO Philosophies
Good Sportsmanship • We strive to create a positive
environment based on mutual respect rather than a win at all costs attitude, and our program is designed to instill good sportsmanship in every facet of AYSO…
AYSO Philosophies:
Player Development We believe that all players should be able to develop their soccer skills and knowledge to the best of their abilities, both individually and as members of a team, in order to maximize their enjoyment of the game…

The Psychology of Coaching
For the rest of this session, remember we are not talking about your child!...
Coaching U9 & U10 Players
Working with U9/10 Athletes
As coaches we need to recognize that each athlete is an individual with unique needs and that we treat them accordingly: Understand that players want to enjoy attending training and games…
Working with U9/10 Athletes Organize your training and games so that every athlete on your team has an opportunity to develop and maintain positive feelings of self-worth. Provide positive encouragement to all players for both accomplishments and mistakes…
Working with Young Athletes
Play in this very young age group is Meant to give a “taste” of the game, some experience in working together as a team, and, most of all, a positive introduction to the sports experience…
Coaching Special Needs Players • Find out what you can from parents / foster
openness. • By U6 – U10, parents should have a fairly
realistic idea of expectations. • May need additional repetitions & help. • Ask for help if needed so you can better
coach all players!! • Davis has a VIP program.
Things To Remember About The U9/10 Player
Avoid lecturing. Children at this age are starting to be self-critical, so make sure you are always positive in your approach…
What to Expect from U9/10 Players
• Physically still in early stages of development • Enthusiastic in competing • Practice new skills over & over to perfect them • Recall details with accuracy • Understand cause & effect • Join in games with moderate strategy
What to Expect from U9/10 Players
• They need reinforcement • Fear failure & peer rejection • Blame others, make excuses for
shortcomings/mistakes • Like talking and hanging out with friends • Like putting on “shows” for parents/friends • Like to be coach’s “helper” • Feelings can be easily hurt

• Off-the-field responsibilities affect team/players – be prepared!
• Organize the team: your first priority! 1. Develop a Team Goal 2. Develop a Coaching Philosophy 3. Conduct a Parents’ Meeting
Team Management • Develop a Team Goal
– Something not reliant on the win-loss record • More skilled players should grow too • Improvement in overall game/Law knowledge • “Players having FUN while learning about
soccer” is a good base for a team goal. You, the parents and players can build on that foundation…
Team Management
• Develop a Coaching Philosophy – Set appropriate expectations – Show respect to all players…
Why are you coaching? Why should you be coaching?
To “enrich” our lives!
Team Management • Conduct a Parent’s Meeting
– Discuss AYSO’s Vision & Mission Statements – Discuss the team’s goals – Explain your coaching philosophy – Explain short-sided soccer & why we play it – Educate parents briefly on the Laws of the Game
specific to this age group – Discuss player equipment needs – Set team policies (training, pregame arrival, honoring
the game) – Concussions
Team Management • Conduct a Parent’s Meeting
– Obtain help - some examples: • Assistant Coaches • Team Parent - good sportsmanship, roster, etc. • Referees (required) – at least two, get training • Snack/Green Coordinator • Picture Day Coordinator • First Aid Coordinator – bring back-up ice, 1st aid kit • Team Party Coordinator • Newspaper Correspondent • Photographer/Webmaster • AYSO volunteers for Region!
Team Management
• Parent’s Meeting – Honoring the Game – Set expectations for the parents as
spectators and supporters for their children – Remind them that they are to encourage
but not coach (No more yelling “KICK IT” or “SEND IT”)
– Set times and requirements for trainings and games as well as equipment needed…
Team Management
Training Sessions (Practice) COME PREPARED! Always have medical release forms. Know what will be worked on prior to arriving at the field…
Team Management • Coach’s minimum equipment list for training/games:
– Player medical release forms (always, every AYSO function!!!) – Roster w/phone numbers – Basic first-aid kit – Water container (filled with water), cups, ice – Soccer balls – Extra pair of shin guards – Marking pen for labeling – Whistle
• Player’s minimum equipment list: – Soccer ball - properly inflated – Wearing shin guards & socks to cover – Appropriate Clothing, Footwear – Water
Training Sessions (Practice) Have a training plan to build up from a static
activity (no pressure) to a game situation in the amount of time available Have equipment necessary for training Dress appropriately…
Team Management
• Training: – Warm up includes static and dynamic
stretching (the benefits to young children are to develop the habit of warming up muscles and stretching prior to physical exertion)
– Move through training plan at a steady pace, too much free time and players will find ways to entertain themselves…
Team Management Training Session – Be Prepared! • Free Play (keep away, FT Leader, CAUTION: no
unsupervised shooting!) • Warm Up & Stretch (NOT ballistic) • Introduce Technique (Say-Show-Do-Review; See-
Show-Say/PIE) • Skill-Based Activity using technique (dribbling, passing);
incorporating Principles of Play • (U10 & 12) Tactical Development based on last game;
incorporating Principles of Play • Build Up (ensure success) to Small-Sided Game • Cool Down & Stretch; Review • Remind players/parents of game day (times/location)…
Team Management • Training Sessions
– Allow players plenty of water! • Players should be allowed to get water when
they need it - not necessarily only when a break is scheduled
• Game Day – Make sure players know where and when they
should show up (30-45 min. prior to game)…
Team Management
• Game Day – Have medical release forms or don’t play
(referee’s are not responsible to ensure you have the forms, you are)
– Have equipment to warm up and decent game balls if you are Home team
– Ensure players remove ALL jewelry. Bandaids over earrings are not an option…
Team Management GAME DAY APPROACH: • Prior to game – reinforce skill/tactic from training • Substitution breaks – water (anytime!); positions • Half time
– new positions – make only 1 major correction – listen to what players see/think is happening in game
• After game – Have SHORT review of game – Get feedback from players on their play performance (what
did we do well/ what can we improve; what one thing did another player do well)
– Remind players of next training, etc.
Objectives and Principles
• Objective is a goal or purpose, what is to be achieved.
• Principles of Play are what is needed to attain your objectives
• Players must understand both the objectives for the game and how to apply the principles to accomplish the objectives…
Objectives and Principles
• The players are taught the objectives and principles through training sessions, not during the game
• The ones who also need to understand these but will be the most difficult to teach is the parents…

Teaching Methods
• P.I.E. – Positive – Instructional – Encouraging Anyone (players/parents/referees/employees/etc.)
who only hears what they do wrong will start to believe they cannot do anything right and lose the will to try…
Teaching Methods
• Say, Show, Do and Review Say – Explain the skill or technique Show – Demonstrate the skill or technique Do – Have players perform the skill Review – Review, correct (in a positive
manner) and confirm proper technique
Teaching Methods
• See, Show, Say See – Coaches must observe players’ performance
during games and training to see if proper technique or method is being used (also known as the “Coaching Eye”)
Show – Describe what you see the player doing that needs to be corrected and show them the correct way
Say – Once a player(s) performs the skill, tactic, or strategy effectively let them know! Say it out loud for all to hear...

What is the BEST teacher of the game?

Kids just want to PLAY! See you on the field! ...
Thank you for coaching!!!
U12 – Positions, More Principals of Play &
Systems of Play (time allowing!)
Positions
• Position – The place a player stands every time play
is started: Examples from other sports - • Football – Before each snap of the ball the left
tackle is always on the left next to the left guard, the center always snaps the ball, etc.
• Baseball – The outfielders and infielders are always in their positions prior to the pitch…
Soccer is a game of movement!! No fixed positions (areas of responsibility)
• Keepers (or goalkeeper) • Defenders (backs, sweeper, stopper) • Midfielders (left, center, right) • Attackers (forwards, wings, strikers)
• All children play all field positions, but not in
the same game! (exception – keeper)
Position/Player Concepts
• If they have the ball – We’re all defenders!
• If we have the ball - We’re all attackers! (not offensive!)
Position/Players Characteristics
• Goalkeepers – Agility – Quick reflexes – Sure hands – Courage to get the ball – Ability to distribute the ball – Ability to read the game – And want to play in goal…
Positions
Positional Responsibilities (Player responsibilities)
What’s needed from a player during the attack or in defense is this.
Make relative decisions based on:…
U-12 Coaching Course
Me
TeammateOpponent
TimeUp a GoalDown a Goal
Goal DefendingGoal Attacking
And read it all in seconds!
What is the score?
Positions
• What makes soccer different from other more traditional American Sports?
– With very little exception (kickoffs and penalty kicks) play is not stopped after the attack fails, the defense wins the ball, or even when the ball crosses the touch or goal lines and has to be put back into play.
Positions Coaches must teach all players that they need to play both sides-of-the ball. We all attack and we all defend! When a player makes a creative run up field but possession is lost the whole team must now defend… (transition!)
