Product Description

An essential guide for female soccer players, and their coaches
 
Providing those coaches of female teams with important information that is directly relevant to the specific needs of their players, this overview is aimed at the experience and inexperienced alike. It is full of practical ideas for establishing an effective environment for female players. It covers all the technical foundations: ball mastery, passing, running and dribbling, heading, shooting and finishing, the principles of defense and attack, goalkeeping, footwork and movement, shot stopping, saving the ball, distribution, and dealing with crosses and high balls. Coaches will learn how the game should be taught, how the coaching environment can be adjusted to fit the needs of female players, the strategies and tactics that best suit female players, physical fitness, medical issues, nutrition, and the mental game.
