Hi all,

Any coaches working with our U9-13 age groups, I strongly recommend attending the following course if you can….

Skill Training Certificate – Skill Acquisition Phase

This course is aimed at coaches training players aged 9-13.

In the Skill Acquisition Phase the coach focuses on assisting players to build technical skills.

The course is conducted over 7 hours, is fully practical and deals with the development of the four functional game skills, being first touch, striking the ball, running with the ball and one-versus-one.

These four core skills make up 95 percent of the actions of outfield players during a game. It is critical to train these actions repeatedly so that players develop the ability to perform them more effectively during a game.

On completion of the course coaches will be asked to complete an online self-assessment form within two weeks of the course finishing. Once this has been completed a certificate will be issued.
