Coaching a Season of Significance

Coaches are always looking for tools and resources to improve their craft, from training programs to team management. Coaching a Season of Significance was written by an experienced youth and high school soccer coach for other soccer coaches. However, many of the thoughts and ideas can be transferred and utilized in other forms of sport and in business.

This book takes you from the beginning of the season with the pre-season meeting, organization, and setting goals. It will tackle some of the many challenges and problems coaches have to face throughout the course of the season, concluding with the post-season banquet. This comprehensive guide encompasses team rules, differences in boys and girls, dealing with administration, program promotion, and many more topics concerning soccer and coaching in general.

Coaching a Season of Significance explains how to implement core values for your program, build strong communication, and foster the development of long-lasting relationships.
