It’s not that teams “can’t finish.”

It’s that scoring is the hardest thing in the sport.

Defense travels. Defense wins.

[Marsha Lycan @mlycan12]

How many times do we hear this in soccer:

We are good we just can’t finish
We just don’t put away our chances
We don’t have any goal scorers

Well guess what? Your life will be way better once you accept the fact that nobody scores much in soccer. It’s why soccer games aren’t 6-4. Many are 0-0 or possibly 2-1 if we are really having a good day.

In the first round of WSO NCAAs, 17 of the 32 game(more than half) featured at least one team scoring ZERO goals in regulation. And if you think that is simply due to inequality of matchups in the first round, consider that the second round of 16 games 8 of those also had one team with zero. Presumably 8 of the best teams in the country with the best players in the country playing for 90 minutes and not putting the ball in the net a single time.

Time to go watch the Elite 8 and hope for some elite goal scoring but don’t get your hopes up. In the words of @ShacksTribe it’s way easier to destroy than create. But there’s nothing better in the world than scoring that elusive goal on soccer and It’s why we go so hard on the cellys!

Across 17 NCAA DII women’s matches this season…

Average Ball In Play Time: ≈ 60 minutes out of 90.
That means one-third of every match is “stopped.”

Highest: 66:50
Lowest: 49:28
Median: ~60:00

@albinsheqiri @SerieA @Atalanta_BC Hello is this pdf still available? Thank you

On the field, clear communication prevents breakdowns, organizes our press, and holds our back line together.

Off the field, it builds relationships, accountability, and leadership that lasts far beyond the game.

Silent teams break down.

Connected teams break through.

@mattdanaher Here comes the new Coaching Education Courses…

[Tyler Wickham @Twickham06]

@mattdanaher Agreed!

Just curious as most programs cram so much into a small window of time.

[Tyler Wickham @Twickham06]

Coaches, how do you recommend incorporating the beep test into a training schedule? Specifically, what timing do you suggest for conducting the test, and how do you periodize training leading up to and following the beep test to ensure optimal performance?

[Tyler Wickham @Twickham06]

If you're going to spend time with a private trainer - have it be for the most DIFFICULT technical skills. Long balls, volleys, first touch, finishing, 1v1 attacking, crossing etc.

Anyone who is having you do ladder drills for an hour is stealing your money

[Tyler Wickham @Twickham06]

Coaches, curious to hear your approach! Do you use a traditional number system or positional labels (e.g., forward, CM, CB) with your team? Or have you developed your own system to communicate roles and responsibilities?
