Quote "   I HAVE AN INSTRUCTORS LICIENCE SO I CONFIRMED WITH GOLD COAST SOCCER REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT OFFICER THAT ANYONE WHO ATTENDS WILL BE GIVEN THE ‘GRASS ROOTS’ LICENCE IF THEY REQUIRE IT. "  Steve Beever

Steve Beever, the Assistant Coach of our Premier League side has invited all current (and would be coaches) to attend a special session with him to expand your Coaching knowledge.He will be putting on 3 of these courses and a fourth will be designed more for the competition age Coaches.

Steve has a wealth of knowledge & is well known around the Gold Coast having had stints at Magic United, Coomera and Musgrave soccer clubs.

Please notify Gerry Glaser at  g_glaser@bigpond.net.au by Tuesday afternoon at the latest if you are attending.

The details of the sessions from Steve are as follows:

THURSDAY THE 18^TH MARCH I WILL BE AVAILABLE TO PUT ON A SESSION FOR ALL CLUB COACHES FROM 05:00PM TO 06:30PM.

IT WILL BE FOR ALL GRADES FROM ROO BALL THROUGH TO SENIORS. I PLAN TO DO 3 OF THESE SESSIONS, AND AN EXTRA ONE FOR COMPETITION AGE COACHES.

THE SESSIONS WILL JUST BE A DEMONSTRATION OF A GENERAL 3 STAGE SESSION, WARM UP, GAME RELATED PRACTISES AND SMALL SIDED GAMES.

THIS IS NOT SOMETHING I INVENTED JUST WHAT OTHER VERY EXPERIENCED COACHES HAVE SHOWN ME.

BEING ON A THURSDAY, THE COACHES SHOULD LET THEIR MANAGER OR SOMEONE ELSE BE RESPONSIBLE TO COVER THEIR SESSION. THURSDAYS WORK BETTER, AS COACHES ARE ALREADY AT THE CLUB, WHEREAS A DIFFERENT NIGHT MEANS THEY HAVE TO COME OUT SPECIAL.  

COACHES SHOULD WEAR THEIR SOCCER GEAR, AS THEY WILL BE INVOLVED IN THE SESSION.
