Need Some Fresh Ideas?

As a soccer coach, seasoned or new, one of our many responsibilities is to plan out our training sessions so that the players can learn, have fun, and develop a passion for the game. Listed below are some web sites that can really help coaches of all levels.

Practice Plans

Valley AFC has purchased practice plans to be used by our Arsenal Travel and Recreational Head Coaches. 

The plans are located on google docs and you need to be profiled to view them.  You must have/signup for a google account.  If you are a head coach and don't have access please contact tom.brown@ValleyAFC.com.
