How to become a youth football coach?

Every coach has his own personality and characteristics. For parents who are looking for a coach for their children, there is no concept of "correct" coach, only the difference between suitable and inappropriate. There is no doubt that Mourinho and Guardiola are the best coaches, but it may not be appropriate for them to take care of children aged 6 or 7. For young football coaches and enlightenment coaches, whether children can fall in love with football is the biggest test. As for improving sports skills and giving children a winning heart, this is another story. How can I become a more professional youth football coach?

1, pay attention to the cultivation of personal morality

Coaches spend a long time with players, so the coach's personality will greatly affect the player's personality. Professional coaches will consider the following points:

A, focus on cultivating children's sports skills, rather than just focusing on winning or losing each game.

B treat all children equally and emphasize fair competition.

C. Pay attention to every child, not just the "star" players with good skills.

D, have a winning heart.

Is a sustainable learner.

The best coaches are constantly learning, they will know more about the development of players and impart knowledge to players more effectively. Rigid coaches don't want to try new tactics and styles. Such a coach thinks he knows everything. How can they become a growing coach if they are not always ready to learn new knowledge?

2, words and deeds should be appropriate

The coach is a role model for children. Whether children like the coach or not, they will inadvertently imitate the coach, both in behavior and words. Therefore, as a coach, we should pay great attention to our words and deeds and avoid becoming a "bad" role model for children.

A, appearance-wearing appropriate clothes, in line with the identity of the coach.

Behavior-standardize your behavior and keep your words and deeds consistent.

C, punctuality-players are required to be punctual, and the coach must first do it himself.

D, words-put an end to indecent mantra, foul language, etc.

3, professional ability and certificate

Can you be an excellent youth training coach with perfect personality and proper words and deeds? The answer is certainly not enough. Because as a coach, the most important thing is the professional ability of football, and I know football skills and tactics like the back of my hand. When it comes to professional knowledge, there is still a problem of textual research. Before becoming a certified coach, the official account of WeChat has been introduced in detail. Professional football training classes should satisfy you, and remember to be professional.

In addition, with the development and research of science and technology, the theory and technology of coaches are constantly developing and evolving at a very fast speed. Therefore, as a coach, you should always keep learning, take part in football training in your spare time, master more professional knowledge, learn more about football schools, technical and tactical styles, and master the most cutting-edge technology. I believe that children and parents will like young coaches who are self-motivated and know how to keep charging.

In addition to the professional knowledge of football, there are many additional requirements as a coach for teenagers. You should understand the physiological characteristics of the children you teach and master the psychological knowledge of children and adolescents. It is also necessary to know what skills children of a certain age should master and in what areas they need to improve. The coach needs to evaluate each child in stages.

4. Make lesson plans and lesson plans.

How can we make the training course more effective? It requires coaches to make teaching plans, as well as long-term and short-term teaching plans. Every class needs a detailed and thorough teaching plan, and every class needs clear knowledge points. Even experienced "old" coaches who give impromptu lessons to children are prone to problems. Making lesson plans requires long-term and systematic attention and understanding of the children you teach. Only in this way can we ensure that the teaching content is the most effective for children.

Competition is a good summary and evaluation of the stage teaching tasks, and competition will also stimulate children's competitiveness. When encountering a more formal and non-team competition, as a coach, we should formulate targeted tactics in advance. Tasks assigned to each player, including starting and replacing. After the game, comment on the child's appearance and point out the shortcomings, let the child know the shortcomings, and then try to participate in the later training. Therefore, competition is also a very important part of the teaching plan.

5. Communication, do you really understand?

Needless to say how important communication is, let's talk about skills first. Of course, communicating with one person is different from communicating with a group of people. Unfortunately, as a coach, you will face a group of people. To make matters worse, young coaches will face children who are very difficult to communicate and communicate. This requires coaches to pay attention to methods, tone and control emotions when communicating. The most important thing is respect. Although you are facing children, they have the same self-esteem. Open criticism and criticism will hit a child's effective mind. There are many examples of hating teachers because they don't like them. There must be something wrong with the child, but the teacher asked himself if he could get away with it.

A coach should be able to deal with all kinds of people in all kinds of situations, and more importantly, talk to young players and interview their parents. Communication is two-way-sending information and receiving information. No matter verbal communication or nonverbal communication, it covers many aspects; For example, talk, listen, ask, argue, negotiate, encourage and comfort. People usually think that sending information is more important than receiving information, but in fact it is not. A coach needs to know every player. To do this, he must be good at listening and asking questions.

6, formulate rules and appropriate punishment

Fiona Fang can't live without rules, so coaches should make a series of rules about training and competition. For example, you can't be late for training time, and you must inform in advance if you want to take time off in case of emergency. If a player is late for three times and twice, as a punishment, his playing time will be cut during the game, even if he is a star player in the team. Punishing the stars or core players in the team can play the role of "killing a hundred". Of course, the players who are punished must be convinced, so as to establish prestige among the players.

If the children you teach are younger, say, only 5-6 years old, parents will watch them outside the training ground because they are not at ease. Here comes the problem. During the interval of training, children often go to their parents to feed water, wipe sweat and play coquetry with their parents. As a coach, if you want the little players to leave their parents earlier and become independent earlier, the coach had better get the children together and comment on the training just now, and don't let the children find their mothers on the sidelines.
