Inhaltsangabe

Being a coach in today’s world is different than twenty-five years ago, technology has put information at your finger-tips, just one click away. Want to see a professional training session? Just log onto Youtube and take your pick from Jurgen Klopp to Pep Guardiola. The only problem with this kind of access is, there is no filter or explanation of what you are watching. I don’t just mean an explanation of the rules of the training, but more about the methodology and reasons why the manager created this type of training, and where does this training fit into the overall development of the team for the week, month or year? You may think you understand the training but the reality is you may not fully understand it or the reasons for it. I view coaching is an art form and in-order to become a talented coach, you must gain a deep understanding from the ground up, without understanding the foundation of player development, it will be hard to establish a sound coaching methodology. This book is written about the fundamentals of cueing, gridding and visualization, and how they can be effectively used to teach soccer. Maybe you are familiar with these terms and maybe you are not, but these are important tools that every coach should understand in order to teach the game. Here is a quick example of external cueing; A ball being passed in-between two cones might seem very basic, but it is important to realize the significance of what is actually happening. The cones operate as reference points, so the brain can judge whether the action of passing the ball was successful or not, the focus is taken off the actual technique and put on the outcome of the action. When the focus shifts to the outcome of action, it allows the body and brain to let the technique flow, resulting in improved performance. The next time you see a player passing the ball through a gate, set of cones or pair of mannequins, you will know this is external cueing with the focus on the end result of the movement, as the equipment serves as reference points for the brain. After you teach internal and external cueing, the next progression is to introduce gridding, which serves to build spatial awareness and soccer intelligence, followed by the use of visualization. Visualization takes away all the reference points, making the players judge space, angles and timing without any guidance. The purpose of this book is provide coaches with the science behind cueing, gridding and visualization, so they can be creative and construct any exercise they want using these tools to develop their players. Without grasping the science behind the methods, it will be impossible to construct trainings that lead towards a bigger picture in terms of player development.
