Soccer: Coaching in Action

David Horwitz connects football coaching with team management and training structure. The course moves from early-career pitfalls into defending and attacking principles, then addresses group dynamics, leadership, selection and session planning. Its practical scope helps learners consider the relationship between activities on the pitch and decisions around the team.
