Practice involves individual skills and fitness training as well as team tactics, game speed drills and scrimmages which will in turn develop confidence for the individual. I hope to make well rounded soccer players who can play as many roles as possible on the soccer field. This is how I was brought up to play in my youth training.
Games, I intend to have every player on the team out on the field as much as possible, where lesser skilled players will be able to get 30 minutes or more out of 90. I will attempt to stretch them out of their comfort zones during games by putting them into positions that they are not used to playing, but still not adversely affect the outcome of the game by doing so. Sometimes, you don't have a choice anyway due to the personnel that happen to be there at the time.
Improve individual skills, fitness and knowledge of the game.
Promote a good work ethic and sportsmanship.
Provide a place for the kids to have fun, but not create an environment where winning is everything.
