There are several ways to become the team coach. Sometimes you do it by vocation, because you always wanted it. Other times chance causes us to be forced into it, it is amazing what we get to do for our children ...

Be that as it may you that you arrived here now the best of you is expected and you see yourself with a great responsibility. There is no reason to worry, you know you can with this and much more.

If you want to connect with your team remember these three tips and arm yourself with patience, being a coach of the local soccer team is hard but it is something that fills your spirit ...

1. Enjoy, it is a game. Some of the best coaches and teachers I have seen with children have a remarkable ability to be dumb, wild or dumb. As adults, it may seem that it acts or is false, but this ability to eliminate inhibitions helps alleviate the mood of training practices or sessions. When children play soccer they do it for fun, it is our duty to keep the game fun and fair, so we keep them motivated. The moment a child stops having fun, he loses interest in the game (it also happens to adults).

2. Maintain a discipline of weekly practices. At least once or twice a week will give players the opportunity to share, learn and improve techniques and fitness.

In addition, a bond of friendship and competitiveness will be created among children, which will help motivate them to continue to improve. Remember that you cannot learn from them, but you can provide them with the tools and contribute to creating an environment conducive to friendship and sportsmanship.

3. Understand that they are children and try to understand them. It helps that you go down to their level when you talk to them, both your body position (that you lower your knee to the ground so that your eyes are at your height) as well as your attitude. Remember that they are people and that they will only play the game while it is fun, try to get at their level and listen to them in order to understand them.
