With so many pages and soccer drills, why is this website such a low price?

This is the most frequent question asked. The price is not a reflection on the content or the service provided, instead it is purely set at a level that we consider to be extremely fair to the member, as our focus is the education and development of the coach. Therefore the site is priced at an amount that is a little more than a normal coaching manual or textbook would cost, however the scope and amount of content contained is far greater than any book. The website presently boasts over 2000 pages and more than 550 football coaching sessions.


Why this soccer coaching website?

Simply because this website has been created by a collection of individuals who are looking to assist and aid all coaches regardless of their age, ability, experience level or culture, and not by business people who think they know what the coach needs. This website has been created to ensure it:

  • Incorporates every aspect of the coaching process that is required by the modern day soccer coach.
  • Provides detailed and easily digestible content to allow maximal understanding and optimum retention.
  • Encourages member interaction.
  • Utilises more than just text. All football coaching sessions (soocer drills) are fully 3D animated, each exercise accompanied by photographs and diagrams included where relevant.
  • Is easy to navigate.
  • Contains only information that has been created objectively, so that the member can receive an entirely unbiased education.

These 6 fundamental elements ensure that Coaches Colleague is the most relevant and useful coaching resource on the web.

If those reasons above are not enough;

  • Over 550 football coaching sessions and soccer drills, almost double that of any other soccer coaching website
  • Coaching sessions are broken down into 2 formats; simple and detailed
  • In excess of 2000 pages of content - over 3 times that of other internet based football coaching resources
  • Updated weekly, making it the most frequently updated website and therefore the fastest growing

Please explain the purpose of the animations

There is an animation included with each of the soccer drills contained within the website. They provide a visual tool for the member to grasp the organisation, the starting position and the manner in which the session can be successful. The animations within the site are very easy to understand and highly realistic. As there are so many permutations within a coaching session it would be impossible to provide each outcome. Therefore the animation is accompanied by a detailed (and simplistic) explanation of what the coach should observe and the elements they should be aware of, this allows them to intervene when required to ensure that all their soccer coaching sessions are a success and their players gain as much as possible - without overloading the member with never-ending animations.

What are the animations like?

They vary from football coaching session to football coaching session, but generally they are either birds eye view such as this;

Or viewed from the side like this;

Many of the soccer drills have the animation in both formats, to ensure the session is completely understood.
