As parents of 3 boys we have coached them in every sport. One of them now says he want to try football. So......we searched for a book that would help us help them learn the game and coach them to success.
This book has it all and frankly some great tips for coaching youth sports other football.
However , the fundamentals Mr. Edwards gives to teach the team are great. His 5P's concept is really spot on. But the thing that stuck out most to us was the daily practice plans. Too many coaches have practice and do very little planning. His concept of practice planning and the plans themselves really set this book apart.
This is a great coaching book and we hightly recommend it.

I particularly enjoyed the advice on what to do at the end of the season. The offer of bespoke awards is such an excellent and motivating idea. The inclusion of parents as part of the process is also an excellent recipe for success. This book will prove invaluable to coaches and is useful to parents who are keen to help their youngsters excel in the game.
