Books
A Different Kind of Soccer by Mark Burke, Former Aston Villa and English Premier player. Mark was on the 10th Episode of the Podcast. He played professionally throughout Europe. In this book he tells you how you can train your son/daughter how to train. I love his approach as he simplifies the game for the parent and new coach. This is excellent for parents who have young kids that are starting to play. If you buy this book, send Mark an email and ask him any questions. Good luck!
You’ve heard me talk about FUNINO in the past. These books were written by Horst Wein, the man who invented FUNINO. Read these books if you want to learn more about game intelligence.
