I've never done anything like that before, but good luck to you if you do decide to take it on

[Gianfranco_Z 202]

It's something that definately intrests me, and I hope to pursue it hopefully into a future career. who knows, years down the line, I could be sitting in the stamford bridge hot seat *dreams for a bit*

Nah but seriously, I think nows a good age to start learning, hopefully i'll be able to take a sport physcology night class too.

My dad's been on one, he said it focuses on the psychological aspects of coaching more than anything.

I have done my fa coaching badge level 1 its a piece of piss, its more about what you learn then a pass

if you know what i mean. You have to organise a safe coaching session which kids would find fun.

1. Make sure the pitch is clear of things like sweet packets hazzards as they say.

2. Warm up (dont warm up with them stand in the middle) make sure you do the basic Stretch's

3. Main session (Keep it simple matt dont let it drag, and be very vocal)

After you complete your course matt which you have got to be a bad retard not to complete.

Go to your local park on a sunday talk to some of the coaches of the sunday league teams, and explian

to them that you just completed your level 1 course they will take you on.

The fa coaching badge level 2 is fucking solid, and you need to be a coach of a sunday league team for at least 3 years. This one will find out if you have the mental drive to become a top class coach, if you do this one matt you will have a real chance to make a name for your self. The step up is massive from 1 to 2

the step up from 2 to uefa b and uefa a are not as big.

badboy, you've made that seem pretty simple to anyone

badboy, you've made that seem pretty simple to anyone

Why are you looking into it cj ?

[chrismada9 1,948]

no I'm not, I just think what you've said seems easy for anyone who would want to take up FA coaching, never thought it would be that easy

[Gianfranco_Z 202]

Thanks for that BadBoy, great advice.

I'll look into it this summer!
