I highly recommend Jim Garland's collection of activities to any coach working with U5 to U12. Jim offers excellent technical training ideas and expands into game progressions as well as ideas on space and movement. The 100 activities will challenge coaches and players alike and provide for lots of fun too. Ian Barker-- Director of Coaching Education NSCAA Youth Soccer Drills provides coaches with a good resource of small-sided games and activities to develop soccer savvy players. The emphasis on spatial awareness, decision making and skillful play is exactly the pathway for the young player. Coach Garland turns that pathway into a highway. Sam Snow-- Coaching Director US Youth Soccer Jim Garland has written an excellent book that will assist any youth coach in their practice sessions. A must for any coach just getting started! Pete Caringi-- Men's head soccer coach, University of Maryland, Baltimore County, Director of the All-Maryland soccer camps since 1982
