In my previous newsletters, I’ve tried to communicate the message home that the quality of play should not be sacrificed for winning. But after a long hard season, there will eventually be a winner and how that team has achieved this success does not always make them the most attractive attacking team to watch.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching the Brazilian National team play during the recent Women’s FIFA World Cup, even though they were the eventual runners-up to Germany their style and flair was not sacrificed to achieve success.

This month’s edition of Coach’s Corner will help you adopt an attacking style which will allow your teams to play. We all have different styles and approach to the game which may have to vary.  Even the coaches at the top level have to adapt their styles depending on the personal or the team they are playing against.  When working with youth players educating them to play smart soccer not only will help your teams look better but will help children develop into all round soccer players.

Enjoy the final few weeks of you fall soccer season
