About the author

There he was, a soccer player who had difficulties scoring. He wanted to be the best on the field but lacked the confidence and know-how to make his goal a reality. Every day, he dreamed about improving, but the average coaching and lack of knowledge only left him feeling alone and like he couldn't attain his goal. He was a quiet player and his performance often went unnoticed.

This all changed after his junior year on the Varsity soccer team of one of the largest high schools in the state. During the team and parent banquet at the end of the season, his coach decided to say something nice about each player. When it came to his turn to receive praise, the only thing that could be said was that he had scored two goals that season even though it was against a lousy team, so they didn't really count...

It was a very painful statement that after the 20+ game season, all that could be said of his efforts were two goals that didn't count. Since that moment, he has been forever changed considering one of his greatest fears came true; he was called out in front of his family and friends. Because of that, he got serious. With a new soccer mentor, he focused on the training necessary to obtain the skills to build his confidence and become the goal scorer he always dreamed of being. The next season, after just a few months, he found himself moved up to the starting position of center midfielder and scored his first goal of the 26-game season in only the third game.

He kept up the additional training led by a proven goal scorer to build his knowledge. Fast forward to present day and as a result of the work and focus on the necessary skills, he figured out how to become a goal scorer who averages about two goals and an assist per game, all because of an increase in his understanding of how to play soccer. He was able to take his game from bench-warmer who got called out in front of everybody to the most confident player on the field.

Soccer Training: A Step-by-Step Guide on 14 Topics for Intelligent Soccer Players, Coaches, and Parents by Dylan Joseph
Have an interest in this game as I like to know how games are played, the rules and other information that is important. I didn't participate in school.
Offer of free spreadsheet and more. Comes with warnings to get checked out and given the ok by a doctor before you start the regiman that will turn into good habits.
Book is geared more towards an individual training and that makes it easier to be a team player.
So many different positions and uses for the parts of your body that I hadn't even realized. A lot of strategy is explained with detailed information about how to do the move from beginning to end.
Lots of coach and parent tips. The author's site also shows pictures and video's of the moves and positions. Nutrition, sleep, yoga and exercises etc are also discussed and why doing different things on a daily basis will improve your body to be able to play the sport.
What I liked about this book was the down to earth easy to understand and words are showing the encouragement the coach uses in a loving way.
Examples of things that happened are also detailed.
Favorite part was realizing the sandwich method of praise while at the same time tweeking the position of the outcome to be achieved. Doesn't then feel like you are getting yelled at or cut down.
Glossary of words are explained at the end. Next book in the series is highlighted at the end but you have a vote in the matter.
Received this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.
