Thanks for the video! My 5yo daughters summer league was going to be cancelled without a coach so here I am, frantically learning how to coach youth soccer. I've literally never played. 🤣
DUDE MY 3 year old's team is the same. Here I am and I have clue about soccer
Same. I played hockey growing up. They are similar enough, right?
Same 🙋🏻♀️
I had volunteered. and yes I am new to all this.
You are a great parent keep it up
My daughter loves soccer. She has played 3 seasons. This year the 8 yr olds didnt have a volunteer. So it was going to be canceled. My wife asked me and i was like no way, i have no idea how to coach, but then i saw the look on my daughter's face. So i said, you know what, ill do it. I'll learn how to,and her face lit up. Kids needs this. You're the first video i saw. I hope i do a good job. I played a little as a teen... but a coach... I'm terrified.
Hope it went well for you! I'm in the same boat and today was our first practice. Felt a little odd to be honest especially since I'm not familiar with the game 😭
This video is so helpful. I am my 7 year old’s soccer coach, and I have never coached soccer before in my life. I was the only parent to show up for the meetings but immediately reached out to all the parents when I got home from the meeting. I am so excited to do this! When I found out his team didn’t have a coach I wanted to volunteer to be the coach because it just seems like a way to have some fun with my oldest and teach him a few things.
I start coaching today thank you
Thanks for posting this!
Thanks for this video and helpful details!
Thanks for the help! Great information.
thank you, going to coach my little brothers soccer team and this was really help, I wish you health and peace
Thank you I just got my first team as a coach being a rec assistant this is a very different assignment then I’m normally tasked but this video is helping my transition in nicely. Thank you!
Thank you for the video!!! Helps me alot. I just volunteered to coach my kids soccer team. 🤟🏽
Thank you for this video and I appreciate the last statement. I've been a volunteer coach for a year now and hearing thank you from players, parents and other coaches makes me even wanna do more for the club.
Thank you for the video! I didn't even think of checking out the USA website.
Thank you so much for this video!! Super helpful :D
Thanks for the video!
Your video made me drop a tear. I was gonna try to make a team so my little brothers nd his friends could play nd be more affordable than other teams. I was thinking it was gonna be too much nd so good of an idea then your video inspired me through the roof. I hope you continue to make videos they would help soooo much Thank you for your words l!
Very helpful video. Thanks for sharing. I am interested in formations.
This is my first year coaching, starting with 4-5 year Olds, my first practice tomorrow and I'm nervous about running practice.
Thanks this is helpful.. I'm going from assistant volunteer coach to Volunteer Coach this spring.
Very good video with excellent points.
Thank you for the video sir. I'm about to start coaching my son's soccer team, and I have no clue about soccer. I see lots of youtube videos in my future.
Well hopefully we can produce some stuff to help you and others out! We’ve been slacking it’s been a busy season! Stay tuned! We have more coming soon!
I'm in the same situation this season!
@@davecunningham579 you'll do fine man. It's not as bad as you might think it will be.
@@FH_83_02 thanks, we'll see how it goes
Hello my name is zukisani Ncokazi from south Africa cape Town I need mentor
Thank you 💯
Thank you for the video
This is my first time coaching let alone i dont know anything about soccer but my son is starting next week and i volunteered as a assistant coach but didnt expect to become a coach to 7 kids! Im scared not gonna lie but im glad i came across this thank u
This is me!! I'm clueless.. excited and terrified!
@@sarahardin6451 my first practice went so AMAZING! We have practices every Monday and games on Saturdays. Our first game Saturday is going to be wild haha but they're so much fun. Hope your practices and games are just as fun!
Subscribed in ten seconds. Keep up the good work man!
I’m volunteering as a coach for a soccer team I soooo appreciate this!
Thanks for this video.
No problem, we’re going to make a lot more content when we’re out of season! Thanks for the watch!
I love your logo 🔥
This video was so helpful!
Thank you.
Thank you for this video. I am coaching my 8 year old daughter team in November for the first time. Difficulty: we are in Argentina, where soccer rules. Losing a World Cup final match is a failure for us. Luckily, girls soccer is less stressful. You can find videos of parents squaring off against each other and or referees at ten year old kids games here!
Thank you for this video. I had my first practice for my 5 year old team and I failed I had no idea what to do.
Great video
Your a good man! Thank you for all the advice! You’d be suprized, theres alot of vet coachs out there who aren’t willing to give any advise to new coachs
We’re hoping to add more stay tuned!
Great video! Unfortunately my base team only had two volunteers so I decided to sign up. Really liked the video
Volunteerism is literally the one thing that keeps leagues running! Thank you for stepping up!
About to debut as a coach after playing for 20 years. Literally barely 24 but I’m nervous asfuck yet excited. Playing the game and knowing my team/role is one thing but now trying to play the role of the gaffer is crazy. Hope to do good today. Only been training with the team for a month
Yet another newbie volunteer here. I know basketball and baseball. I guess I'll have to learn soccer (I mean - football!) - thanks for these tips!
Already on the right path! We’re firing back up to make some more content soon!
1st time coaching. My girls asked so I'm giving it a try. U8 and U10 I am open to all suggestions.
When it comes to getting better with drills and communication what you recommend
Thanks for this!! I’ve been asked to coach after offering to be an assistant. We’ve got 19 biddie teams at our park & rec this year. Thankful to only have 1 team and not 3! Ha!!
I was also the only one that signed up to coach, at first I was like well I am just an additional, well now I am the coach. Lol
"so somehow you got roped into coaching a soccer team"
😅 Me litteraly like 10 minutes ago. Thanks for the advice!!! Cheers 🍻
Ty
Thanks for this I will be coaching my sons U11 because they do not have coaches and I have no idea what I am doing!!
U11 depending if it is 9v9 or 7v7 at your club is really the tip of the iceberg. At a recreational level, I say work on passing and shooting. Eventually we will have some more content on here!
Good vid. I got asked to coach my sons soccer team and I have no clue about this sport lol
Depending on the age, most of it is pretty straight forward! We’re hoping to make some more content very soon!
This is my 9 year old son's first season playing soccer and if we didn't coach, he wouldn't have a team to play on. I'm nervous as I've never played before, but this old fat guy is gonna have fun with it!
Can you do one on formations
We literally were told we were coaching the day of practice. Well, my husband did. We were hoping for an assistant coach for him. Now, that's me! We don't know anything about the game, and he's only coached football. So, thanks for the video! First practice today. We are the only ones who can do this or all the kids can't play, so here we go!
That’s how it happens a lot of times unfortunately! I actually started coaching through football as well. We have a lot of new stuff coming so make sure you sub!
Nice delivery. Very impactful on how such a subtle volunteering job could impact the lives of so many kids.
I signed up to be an assistant coach. There team never found a coach so here I am never have coached a game.
I’m a big time Liverpool and fifa fan. Does that make me over qualified ?😃
You might be ahead of the curve just run the team like manager mode and you’re set! Good luck! I’ll be posting new content soon!
Hi Coach Dad, I'm coaching my sons 5th grade rec & ed team this season. My first time coaching, my son has played 2 seasons before, also I played soccer for 3-4 years when I was his age (a lifetime ago) 🤣 I'm 36. So I know a fair amount about soccer. What tips/pointers do you have that you could share with me? Thank you in advance. First practice is this Friday and the first game is Saturday.
It’s a process, I would start with some play first, mainly to see how the boys see the game. Emphasize the basics like spreading out and sharing the ball, try to organize them in shapes to challenge them.
Just get a general feel that way you can determine the best route of how they should play!
Hey Coach! Like you said, I got suckered into coaching because my kids play. Andv yeah, it sounds loads of fun! But I am like a deer in headlights. Any tips?
It really depends on the age, if it’s like u4- u8 I would just focus on individual exercises so they get better with the ball.
If it’s like u10 still some of the same, but you start getting into positions and understanding the game itself.
Above that there’s a lot that goes into positions and roles on the field. So there might be a more drastic learning curve!
What age?
Im from Australia',would that website be still good to use?
cool
Good video . Music made it hard to get through
"somehow you got roped in...." YUP. That's why I'm here!!
Literally how it starts 90% of the time! Lol
I need help this is gonna be my first time coaching u 10 idk what to do ?
I started coaching with my my sister on a 4 year old team. Her daughter,( my niece) is on there as well. I'm 33 and my sister is 30. We have 5 boys and 4 girls. We've had one practice so far and I've never coached, I've just played and so has my sister. We have a blast and try to get them to do some drills and they're pretty good with it. Any tips on telling them not to use their hands and can only use your feet???
When they’re 4 it’s always about creativity! I love telling them, “if you touch the with your hands it’s loses its magic power! If you touch it with your feet it gets more Magic power” that’s what I have always used and for what ever reason it works!
@@coachdad4482 awesome my friend! Thank you so very much! I'm so excited and happy I get to help with these kids. I hope I can make a huge impact or at least keep them interested in the game
Hi Coach Dad! My 8 year old son has never played a sport but is interested in soccer. I know absolutely nothing about sports. I signed him up to play soccer later this month and the association doesn’t have a coach for his team! The only team without a coach and it’s his lol. Anyways we just moved to this state and I don’t work yet and I feel like I’m the only parent that has the time to be a coach. They’ve been searching and no one is volunteering and I really don’t want to disappoint my son so I was thinking of volunteering. Do u think I can do it with absolutely no experience or knowledge? The association says they will provide resources to help whoever feel comfortable. I’m just really nervous and doubting myself. I’m an out of shape mom with no experience lol. Your video was so helpful and really makes me want to help these kids. Just looking for advice... thank you!
U10 soccer is still pretty basic! If you sign on to manage your team I would ask the parents if potentially anyone wants to assistant!
I wouldn’t be too worried, you would be shocked at how many coaches start out just like you may be!
I would definitely start with the us soccer courses to get going! Lots of good info there!
@@coachdad4482 thank you so much for responding! I am officially the coach now so I will be watching more of your helpful videos and checking out the Us soccer courses you recommended!
This is me right now lol. I feel so bad my sons team doesn’t have a coach.
Is there anyway to make money coaching youth sports? Is this like when you know you were not qualified to coach at the professional level so your only option is to coach kids for free and still work another job to make ends meet?
I feel alot of coach dads take this too seriously when they aren't even getting paid for any results. Like maybe it's a free pass for them to yell at kids and make them feel bad if they suck at soccer. Because they couldn't afford a Porsche or Ferrari.
I think it depends. Im guessing if it's like recreational soccer then no.
You could coach club soccer, most clubs do pay their coaches. I am fortunate enough to coach club and make some part time money. Recreational coaches are typically volunteers. That’s what this channel is being geared towards with the new content we’re putting together. Hopefully the coach dads and moms realize this sport should be fun regardless of the level!
Today is the day. oh boy! My twin boys start soccer today (U5). and guess who volunteered to coach, this guy. Not gonna lie Im a little scared. The only soccer experience i have is I did play intramurals in college which wasnt much. and I love to PLAY FIFA,,lol thats it.. Any tips? words of wisdom? im gonna need it.
Honestly, u8 and under is pretty straight forward! It’s more about showing them how to dribble, strike and pass a ball. I would search for drills for u8 and under!
