Our coaches are all volunteers, they spend hours each week preparing and delivering football sessions for over 350 kids.
But we can always get better. So, the club invited David Hall from KIS Coaching to run a masterclass for our coaches at the New Inn last night. David has led the FA's L1, Uefa C and Uefa B courses over the past few years and is an impressive and really engaging teacher.
But the message that most took away was to aim for 70% ball rolling time - a great reminder of why we do what we do.
The session focused on key coaching items such as skill acquisition ( how kids learn), communication (stop saying unlucky!) and the design of your practice. Feedbnack from coaches was excellent and we hope to run another session to improve practical session design and delivery from our coaches in the new year.
