Top 10 Reasons to Coach Youth Soccer...
10. To get the chance to fend off a volenteer AR, who is not only a rules expert, but, a former UFC champion. 9. To spend Sunday night designing training sessions while cleaning the 4 major fast food groups out of your SUV. 8. To master the concept of the offside law. 7. To explain the concept of the offside law to officials 6. To drive to new parts of the country, meet new and interesting people...and get screwed by them. 5. To explain to parents that they have several years to wait until little Ricky is Ronaldinho. 4. The love, respect and adulation of your fellow coaches. 3. To watch the players you've spent countless hours training, totally ignore everything you've ever said. 2. To watch a team up 5 goals lose their minds @ being called 10yds offside...And the #1 Reason to coach youth soccer....THE MONEY. A little tongue in cheek, the truth is: what would you do without it? golf, fish ...both just as frustrating and alot more expensive. The lessons learned on that pitch are invalueable, we learned we are as good as anyone in our division...and consequently as bad. We have met the enemy and he is us. The only team we've played this year that we need to be scared of....IS US. Teams don't score on 4 corners in a season much less a half....good thing we covered that in our pre-match work. We are going to be as good as we will let ourselves be, the physical mistakes we can cope with, it's the same mental mistakes that kill, over and over. Oh well, live to fight another day, there's got to be something left we haven't seen.
