The real giants of soccer coaching insights and wisdom from the game’s greatest coaches PDF
So, why a book? Over 100 podcasts means over 100 hours of recorded insights, practicums, and stories from over 100 coaches.
Unfortunately, although our technologically advanced world is quick to pay attention, it is even quicker to forget.
The trends of today become the stories of tomorrow.
Our world, especially the coaching world, is becoming more and more enthralled with the novel.
Our first podcast episode was recorded in 2015 and what Bobby talked about is just as true now as it was then.
So, this book will put all of the insights and ideas I have learned in the last three years into one easy-to-access text.
This book is going to draw from the many threads discussed in the 100+ episodes we have done at the Just Kickin’ It podcast.
I am going to serve as the co-author of this book.
The other co-authors are the many guests referenced and mentioned in this book.
They are the true authors. They are the giants that were courteous enough to allow me to stand atop their shoulders to see just a little bit farther above the clouds.
They are the true artists. I am simply supplying them with a canvas.
My hope is that the reader has in his or her hands a tome that is full of practical knowledge from some of the world’s best soccer coaches.
The tips, insights, stories, and ideas from each of these coaches will equip you, as the reader and a coach, with many “change the environment” moments.
No longer will you have to guess or react emotionally to situations because in your hand you have access to the experience and knowledge of coaches like Rene Meulensteen, Anson Dorrance, and Jay Martin.
They say that people are more likely to be persuaded by what they hear themselves say; my hope is that, as you read this book, these thoughts, experiences, and ideas become your own.
I should also mention that I didn’t write 100 chapters. To do so, would be to write a book that is over 1,000 pages.
I don’t think coaches are interested in reading the War and Peace of soccer, no matter how insightful and interesting it is.
I will continue to write behind the scenes and reveal the insights from the many recorded, and non-recorded, conversations that I have.
For now, we start with this elite group of coaches that I have compiled after many listens, and re-listens, of every single episode that we have done.
