Hi all, happy to be here!

[Hari Seldon]

Hi all,

I am hoping to learn a lot while I am here. I am coaching my daughters 3-4 year old soccer team and I am hoping some experts can help me out.

I know the basics and I played when I was younger, but coaching 3-4s are a different animal entirely!

I am looking forward to chatting.

Welcome Hari, I hope you enjoy it here.

Are you teaching your kids yourself? Why don't you put them in a soccer school?

Welcome to the forum!

I'm about to embark on a course for my first coaching badge, at 35 it is time for me to start winding down my playing days and I'm looking for a smooth transition into coaching children.

 

[caparica007]

I would enjoy teaching kids, I think it must be really rewarding, but not at soccer I have no experience at that area...

 

[deansaliba]

My sessions would probably be very popular because I would charge less because the amount of money youth coaches charge is bloody outrageous, I have a mate who does it and he charges each kid £15 an hour and his sessions have at least 20 kids each time!

 

[caparica007]

What? £15 per hour? That guy must be rich by now... I thought it would be a monthly fee like we have here in Portugal.
