Soccer Routine Kids - Guidelines

Soccer routine kids is something that every youth soccer coach has to deal with. It is important that the coach works hard in dealing with various discipline problems at the training session.

  • Kids Behavior

Here are some of the things that youth soccer training coaches need to be aware of regarding the discipline and behavior of the kids:

1. Kids must follow all instructions of the coach and assistants in the training session.

2. Kids must focus and be attentive to what the coach has to say.

3. The ethics and dignity of the game must be followed, no matter who wins or loses the game.

4. There should be no swearing or name-calling.

5. Do not allow the kids to kick the ball until you give the "order".

6. Always use a whistle. It is an important equipment for soccer training and every coach must use the same in order to get attention from the players.

Kids Soccer Drills - Teaching Dribbling & Shooting

Teaching kids soccer drills may be quite challenging. Today I'll share with you a few kids soccer training tips.

  • Teaching Kids - Dribbling And Shooting

For this kids soccer drill, line up the kids on a single goal line. Be aware that you'll need a large number of balls. Have all the balls scattered over the soccer field. Now, as you say, “GO”, the kids have to move towards these balls, pick up the same, and put it into the goal on the opposite side. This is an effective soccer drill that can help the kids improve their dribbling and shooting skills.


  • One Touch Shooting

Usually kids love this soccer practice game. In this soccer technique, the coach should divide the team in two lines, and have them stand in a queue at not less than forty feet from the goal post. Place the goalkeeper on the goalpost.

You should use one goalkeeper in each session (if your team has more than one goalkeeper). When you repeat the drill, you should change the goalkeeper, giving the other goalkeeper an opportunity to practice the same. Your position will be somewhere between the two queues of the players.

Now, you should toss the ball to one of the queues of the players and instruct them to shoot or pass the ball with just one touch. When any player shoots the ball off to the goalkeeper, the goalkeeper will pass the ball back to you.

Test these kids soccer drills and send me some feedback!
