SOCCERPLUS SKILL OF THE WEEK™ AND SKILLS CHALLENGE PYRAMID™
We are delighted to provide you with free weekly skills/technical videos for outfield players (4-18 years old) and goal keepers (7-18 years old). These videos are designed to offer coaches with technical activities that can be used weekly as ‘Soccer Homework’. Simply direct the players to watch the ‘SoccerPlus Skill of the Week™ and then to practice for a few minutes each day. Of course the role of the parent is critical in this aim so encourage them to log on to www.soccerplus.org/skills and watch the 30-60 second videos with their child. Please forward this web address to all your parents - Players/parents/coach can sign up to receive the free mailing at www.soccerplus.org/skills.

In May we will be providing another excellent tool for players, parents and coaches – THE SKILLS CHALLENGE PYRAMID™ - Players will be able to watch videos of similar aged players performing a variety of progressively difficult individual skills, they will be able to perform the skills in the yard or in practice, complete a self evaluation score and then receive a certificate of achievement.
