In the subjective football world, many coaches just copy the champion which means that they will always be behind the leaders in their field.

Just imagine a football coach wanting to learn HOW to best coach football players.The overlap between the different courses is minimal, yet they all promise you coaching.

How on earth is a football coach supposed to separate relevant from irrelevant information in this jungle of flavours of the month? HOW to coach football, depends on all kinds of external factors. Does the coach work with women or men, with adults or children, amateurs or professionals, does his team train two, three or more times a week, does he have access to a whole, half or quarter pitch to practise, etc.? It is, therefore, very difficult for outsiders to determine HOW a coach should manage a specific situation.

Many courses present concepts based on the differences between people in, for example, personality and culture. All players and coaches have to deal with the same game characteristics and evolutionary principles. Based on these similarities, universal coaching tools will be presented that give direction to HOW to coach football independent of subjective opinions, preferences, beliefs or experiences.

Such an important part of the game is a coach's ability to understand the game tactically from his teams perspective, his opponents perspective and on the fly as things change from moment to moment. When you tell a player where to stand that is their position, in relation to the team that is the formation and the tactic is when, where and how you want them to move and apply whichever strategy you have in mind for that game. One coach’s tactics can be completely different from the next and the beauty of it is both can have success.

Tactics can include pushing a player inside or outside defensively, a center midfielder going out to wide areas when building out of the back or a goalkeeper playing 30 yards off of their line are all example of tactics that can be used.

It is one thing to admire and enjoy a beautiful piece of work, but it is another thing altogether to understand the finer intricacies of what makes that thing beautiful. If you enjoy the game of football, but want to truly understand it on a deeper level, then this is the course for you.
