Just an FYI for coaches that are interested in small sided games. www.bettersoccermorefun.com has just been updated with some new information on how to build small sided games. This includes several new examples, primarily focusing on games of 4v4 and smaller. The USYSA has recommended that youth soccer take an approach that more closely resembles the old street soccer days. This web site offers some valuable insight into how to manipulate the elements of the game in order to achieve a wide variety of coaching problems and solutions.
I saw your site a few weeks ago and tried the passing game on this page on your site: http://www.bettersoccermorefun.com/homework/tsgpassgm.htm My U-12 Girls Rec team love this game and have really benefitted it from it, thanks.
Thanks for the info !! Very good site.. If anyone knows of any other sites that are appropriate for coaches of U8 ( 4 v 4 ) or U9 kids ( 8 x 8 GK) please let me know. Most the sites I have checked have been for older kids
I have some material on my website that is appropriate for the U8-U10 level. Most of the material came out of the USSF national Youth course I took. http://peace2u.home.sprynet.com Check out the drills section.
