Youth soccer is coming up empty with a strain of S.A.R.S.G. – Shooting Aversion Resulting in Scoreless Games. It is what happens when teams try to win with a dull and graceless style of play – playing a “half-court defense” and waiting for the other team to make a mistake, and when it happens, to capitalize on that error with a goal, and then closure – defending for the rest of the game. http://www.karldewazien.com/CoachingArticles/GrahamRamsay/tabid/121/EntryID/77/language/en-US/Default.aspx http://www.karldewazien.com/Default.aspx?tabid=121&EntryID=77 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 16:39:30 GMT http://www.karldewazien.com/DesktopModules/Blog/Trackback.aspx?id=77 From my observation of youth soccer coaches both in practice and clinic situations; I would like to pinpoint some of the common errors that they make. The more you know about them, the more prepared you will be to spot them and correct them – and improve your chances of winning. http://www.karldewazien.com/CoachingArticles/GrahamRamsay/tabid/121/EntryID/75/language/en-US/Default.aspx http://www.karldewazien.com/Default.aspx?tabid=121&EntryID=75 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 16:39:30 GMT http://www.karldewazien.com/DesktopModules/Blog/Trackback.aspx?id=75 You were the lucky ones to be the “real winners” as we found out how to really play JOGO BONITO, the beautiful game. http://www.karldewazien.com/CoachingArticles/GrahamRamsay/tabid/121/EntryID/74/language/en-US/Default.aspx http://www.karldewazien.com/Default.aspx?tabid=121&EntryID=74 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 16:39:30 GMT http://www.karldewazien.com/DesktopModules/Blog/Trackback.aspx?id=74 The way the game is today where teams play with flat back lines there are more opportunities for “High Noon” situations. To get good at it all you have to do is practice; practice and practice in game situations then see the rewards. “High Noon’s” followed by “high fives.” http://www.karldewazien.com/CoachingArticles/GrahamRamsay/tabid/121/EntryID/73/language/en-US/Default.aspx http://www.karldewazien.com/Default.aspx?tabid=121&EntryID=73 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 16:39:30 GMT http://www.karldewazien.com/DesktopModules/Blog/Trackback.aspx?id=73 Screaming instructions at the last moment is no way to win anything. It will probably reverse your strategy of getting ahead of the play and coaching your teammates to win. You have to develop the art of reading the play early and preparing your teammates for the next action. http://www.karldewazien.com/CoachingArticles/GrahamRamsay/tabid/121/EntryID/72/language/en-US/Default.aspx http://www.karldewazien.com/Default.aspx?tabid=121&EntryID=72 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 16:39:30 GMT http://www.karldewazien.com/DesktopModules/Blog/Trackback.aspx?id=72
