The Tip
Explain clearly what you want and then demonstrate what you want
I often see coaches demand, yell, and even threaten. Most coaches are not Tony Dungee (coach of the NFL Super Bowl Champion Indianapolis Colts) who rarely, if ever, speaks above his “normal” voice. Parents and players expect --and accept-- some loudness from a coach. A little loudness may even help sometimes, especially on a large soccer field! But be sure to explain clearly what you want to see, and then show what you want. Young soccer players need to see what you’re talking about, so if you can’t show/demonstrate what you want, bring in a guest instructor or an older player who can.
