Great Book!

This is a great book for the begining soccer mom/dad or even coach! It has drills and coaching ideas for kids of all ages.

Great for U8 to U10

This is the best book I've found for coaching the U8-U10 age groups. McCarthy writes well, and explains the basics in simple, easy-to-understand language. For coaching my U9 team, I found his explanations of skills, positions, rules, and strategy especially helpful. This book should be supplemented with a good book of soccer drills. What it covers, it covers well.
