It Pays to Win on Offense: A game-based approach to developing soccer players that score and create lots of goals (Game-based Soccer Training Book 1)

Recently updated with ALL-NEW GRAPHICS AND DIAGRAMS, "It Pays to Win on Offense" is a book for soccer coaches who are looking for the most effective way to engage all of their players all of the time in order to teach them attacking soccer concepts. The book provides an all-encompassing Game-based Soccer framework for instilling a relentless, attacking mindset in players. By combining educational theory and making everything a competition, coaches can maximize their practice time and teach that attacking concepts are not just limited to certain players or limited to specific positions on the field.

Letâ€™s be honest, there are a lot of soccer coaching books out there. Why would you choose to read this one? In short, this book is different because it combines insights and proven activities from a soccer perspective with an educatorâ€™s detailed explanations. Specifically,

â€¢ For parents of soccer players, It Pays to Win on Offense gives you insight into what might motivate your own child at soccer practice. While this is really a coachesâ€™ book, you may find it interesting to learn about offensive principles of play and the guided discovery questions allow you to ask good questions about the attacking side of the game.

â€¢ For players, It Pays to Win on Offense allows you to see where your coach might be coming from when he or she is teaching you attacking concepts. Each coach will have their own style of delivery, but most if not all of the general concepts in this book will hold true. Also, if your learning style is more book-oriented, you will be able to gain deeper understanding of attacking principles and concepts on your own time, so you will be more comfortable in practices and games having already been exposed to the ideas.

â€¢ For inexperienced coaches, It Pays to Win on Offense provides you with a very detailed, easy-to-understand set of games that can be applied to ANY setting.
o This is primarily why the book is organized by the number of big goals you have available.
o ALL of the games and activities contained in this book have been field-tested and they work!
o Game-based Soccer gives you a framework for practices that will transfer to match days.
o Because GBS is, by definition, game-oriented, it allows you to observe your players more without feeling that you have to jump in and â€œbe a coachâ€ â€“ this is the number one mistake I see inexperienced coaches make (spending too much time talking with the players standing around getting bored).

â€¢ For coaches who have some experience, It Pays to Win on Offense allows you to stay fresh and keep your players energized, especially true when you have been coaching the same group of players for an extended period of time.
o This framework may be useful, as it challenges some schools of soccer thought with which you may be more familiar.
o The package of activities, questions, and progressions can be used wholesale or picked apart, depending on your comfort/interest level.

â€¢ For experienced coaches, It Pays to Win on Offense provides you with some new perspectives and games with which to â€œtweakâ€ your own coaching philosophy and practice implementation.
o Some experienced coaches have told me that they use some of the games here, as they hadnâ€™t come across them before.
o Others have said that they really like the guided discovery questions because it gives them a new approach to try with their players.
o Others still have told me that they started with one game in the book and then it morphed/evolved into a different one â€“ this is what experienced coaches do â€“ they take something new and apply it to their own setting to get what they need from their players.

All in all, I think anyone who has an interest in soccer, specifically the offensive side of the game, can get something from this book. While there are plenty of excellent soccer coaching books available, this one is different because it provides detailed explanations of the activities.
