For most coaches, the purpose of tryouts soccer is to find the most competitive players, where as the idea is to actually sort out players and teams through a series of successful tryouts. Many young coaches do not effectively distinguish between average players and good players. They fail to recognize the promising players, or overlook gifted players who have the ability to read the game and make quick decisions. Instead they tend to select players who use the ball a great deal. There are many beliefs which are wrong in youth soccer. For example: a perception that some players get their position through politics like a coach's daughter, or a board member's son. And the other one is that good team never has any vacancies. But the fact is that successful teams change their players every year whether due to injury, job relocations, or player's commitments to other sports. The soccer association never fails to encourage this. Usually in tryouts soccer, both good and average players are selected. We explored few of the popular tryout myths; well also discuss some of the common and compelling failures that even skilled soccer coaches have experienced. Coaches are humans and so they have their favorites too. Some players are retained, in some weak situations, even if they do not have the skill sets that match the team and do fit into teams long term objectives. Instead, they could have let that player move on to a team consistent with his or her ability and level of commitment. If you want to attract the best players to your team, do your homework. Design a precise and a logical training and competitive plan for the year? Seldom, as a coach, you would take on a year- long consulting task without a look at the account of work or a project plan. It is obvious that the kid is neither improving nor working hard to get better. It's your duty to replace him or her with an ambitious player who deserves a chance. Dont be kidding. It is the performance that matters, so consider replacing the player if a kid does not contribute much. The truth is good players both in terms of performance and behavior, are always hard to find. Never do this mistake of replacing an injured player who is likely to come back and can contribute in a big way. Coaches can usually keep the player if he is just injured. The selling point is that the coaches should use simple skill as part of their tryouts soccer sessions. This will help you to find whether the potential player actually has the intent of learning and developing the necessary skills.
