Hey Youth Club Coaches, Coaching Directors, Parents and Boards........What do you think is the most important thing for a professional club in Holland? Not Uniforms, not sweats suits, not team flags, not pins, not Surf Cup caps, not back packs, not rankings, not attending Surf Cup, not winning state cups, not winning a " national championship", not being named "elite" nor wearing Nike, Puma or Adidas. The most important concept at every club we have visited in Holland (and Belgium, England, Germany, Spain, and Mexico), over the past 15 years, is educating the players about soccer ........and developing them. Imagine if your club's success was measured by the number of players you placed in college, the MLS, or the National teams rather than the number of tournaments or state cups won.....? |
