Cupello is here to help individuals become great coaches. You can be a soccer coach without experience if you have the desire, a strong interest, and either find a local team or get help and set up one yourself. You will need need to work hard and prepare for your first training sessions. Once you've had some coaching experience, you can then progress by taking coaching courses to earn licenses. Go on coaching courses I like to see coaches going on courses especially courses that deal with coach behaviour and how coaches deal with the children they are coaching. Often well meaning coaches will get lots of things wrong when dealing with their team for the first few weeks. Watch other coaches One of the ways you can learn is by watching other coaches and their different intervention methods and ways of encouraging players and dealing with problems. Keeping it fun One element that is a must have is having fun, and as I have become more focused on coaching and developing the individual, I have tried to retain that fun element. I’ve learned the importance of repetition, which at one time I would have seen as the antithesis of fun but I have managed to make it fun.
