Thread: @TallTinyFooty

One of the most enjoyable programmes I've implemented during my time as a coach. Maybe you can take some ideas from, 'Tall & Tiny Footballers.'

Sessions encouraged adults to join in the fun and create a positive learning environment for the children ⚽️🏃‍♀️

Initially reviewing some of our programmes for roughly 3 to 5 year olds, I found:

▪️ Coaches having difficulty engaging the group
▪️ More 'sit' and 'listen' than 'run' and 'fun'
▪️ Lace tying, bathroom breaks and babysitting
▪️ Coaches stressed when they should be smiling

Education was key. Taster sessions with parents, carers or older siblings solidified my belief that children take a lot more on board by copying than listening!

Adults were not in the sessions to coach their children, they were there to play! And the children quickly copied.
