Could not run our soccer club without the help of our partners at The Coaching Manual. Coaching acumen is minimal in the Northern region of rural New Hampshire; TCM provides our junior coaches with a valuable road map that our club can rely on from grassroots to the NCAA...

Thanks Darren, we're delighted that you find the information so useful. Once coaches take the leap and use their first session, they are invariably hooked! Hope your season is going well and that you enjoy the World Cup!
Great site/ brilliant info
Simple to follow training drills are a life saver when trying to plan out a session for my team . There’s a lot of knowledge laid out in simple terms that makes a great read and in turn can easily be related back to the training ground and match days . Love the summer pre season packages to follow with my squad .

Hi Brian, thanks for your feedback. Lookout for the winter programme we'll be rolling out shortly, something to share with players to keep them sharp in the mid season break. Hope the rest of your season goes well!
Principles of Play
I’ve been doing my UEFA C badge this Summer and all the new principle of play content is very much aligned with that and thus very helpful! Keep up the good work TCM team.

Hi James, thanks for your review. We're so glad you found the platform helpful whilst you were doing the UEFA C badge and we hope you passed with flying colours. All the best for the season with your U10 team!

One of the most comprehensive websites for content that I have come across in my grassroots education. And the coaches that present via video are clearly the top / vanguard of the game. From my favorite, the Principles of Play, to whatever I need for a drill or session, I have found it of genuine help in both my education and my players’ development - no better compliment that I can share!

JSSL FC Singapore's Review
The Coaching Manual is a really easy and interactive tool to use for coaches and what we love about it is that, it has lots of contents with a wide range of topics to choose from! All the coaches need to do is to select one and adapt it to the players they've got! Looking forward for more great stuffs from TCM and highly recommend using this for any coaches who haven't used this yet! Cheers!

Thanks Garry. Volunteers give so much of their time freely to the game. Without volunteers the game would be nothing. So it makes us really proud to know that we are helping to save the time you give.
