- Our overall objective is to have fun while learning to be better soccer players
- Coaches and parents subscribe to the
BAYS Zero Tolerance policy regarding referees
- Good soccer is a combination of skills, stamina, and smarts
- When smart soccer players have the ball, they look for teammates in good positions to receive the ball
- When smart players don't have the ball, on offense they put themselves in good positions ready to receive the ball
- When smart players don't have the ball, on defense they put themselves in good positions to win back the ball
- That's all there is to it; you see, soccer isn't all that hard!
- We work hard to win; we learn from our losses and put them behind us
- Everyone plays at least half of each game; playing time may be reduced to address discipline issues
- All players will get a chance to play most if not all positions, with a leaning towards natural fit
- At practices, we like to minimize standing around.
If each kid has a soccer ball, we can encourage juggling or passing back and forth whenever there is any idle time.
(The Dutch say, "Always with the ball!")
