How To Coach Kids Soccer/Football: A Course For Beginners

Chris King’s children’s course focuses on introducing football to ages five to ten. The published curriculum uses a larger sequence of introductory and practical lessons than his separate general session-planning course. It addresses the needs of adults beginning to lead young players, including how to organize accessible activities and communicate a simple learning goal.

What you will learn

• Organize introductory football activities for young players
• Explain basic ball skills with simple coaching cues
• Plan sessions around participation and appropriate progression

Who this suits

For parents, teachers and new grassroots coaches preparing to work with children in the stated age range.

Before you enroll

The course lists 2 hours 32 minutes, updated in October 2025. It is introductory teaching, not a child-safeguarding credential or federation license. Confirm club requirements, supervision, emergency arrangements and age-specific rules. Activities should be adapted to the actual children’s abilities and available space.

Udemy offers paid purchase or subscription access depending on the current course and region. Paid teaching courses provide completion certificates under Udemy’s policy. Check current access terms and any separate software or material costs before enrolling.

Put it into practice

Draft a short fictional activity with one clear goal and a simpler variation. Explain how every child would participate, how instructions would be demonstrated and what signs would suggest changing the activity.
