Dear Coach,

Performance follows attitude. You can run all the technical sessions you want, but without the right mindset you will struggle to develop young players into stars of the future.

Attitude is shaped by the influences upon players at a young age, and The Complete Guide to Developing Soccer Players explains how to provide players with the standards, discipline, care and concern they need to succeed. What’s more, it includes a set of drills for each key stage for putting theory into practice.

The Complete Guide to Developing Soccer Players certainly lives up to its title. It contains everything you need to know on creating high achievers of the future with the right attitude that will feed their performance for the rest of their lives, and not just their soccer careers.

“If you focus on results, things will not change. Focus on change and you will get the results”

Youth coaching standards are getting better all the time. But many coaches still struggles with the same problem. Too often, you see youth coaching programs heavily focused on technique, in a rush to get players performing sleek passing moves and shooting accurately. But while developing skills from a young age is important, long-term success can only be achieved if players are developing their soft skills as well.

The Complete Guide to Developing Soccer Players can help you bridge the gap. It explains how to train players, throughout the three key stages in their development. This includes how to coach fair play, work ethic, how to win and how to lose as well as tactical and technical awareness.

Much more than just a book about theory The Complete Guide to Developing Soccer Players also includes 40 drills. So you get everything you need to give players both a mental and physical workout in every session.

“Written by a coach with over a decade’s experience developing young talent into professional players”

Born in Bolton, England, Jason Carney developed a love of soccer from a young age. At 15 he was given the chance to take his passion from the recreation fields onto the academy pitch, with trials at Bury FC and Oldham Athletic FC. While unsuccessful in his bid towards becoming a professional player, Carney’s love of the game remained undiminished. He continued to play soccer at regional league level, playing for Ramsbottom United (Bury) in the North West Counties League for five years.

At 26 years old, Carney decided to start preparing for a life in the game after his playing days were over, and began studying for his coaching licenses. His coaching career received an early boost when he was appointed as a scout for Oldham Athletic FC, who at the time were in the English first division.

In 1996 Carney then got the opportunity to coach at Championship League side Preston North End FC. The following year, Preston appointed Gary Peters as the Academy director and, former Manchester United manager, David Moyes as first team coach. Carney was able to gain a first class tutelage in coaching from observing how Peters and Moyes organised coaching sessions for the team and interacted with players. In particular, Carney observed how they developed intelligent players, providing the foundation for this book.

While at Preston, Carney took his UEFA B license in England and, with Moyes’ recommendation, took his B license in Scotland. Carney remained at Preston North End FC until 2002 before joining the staff at the highly acclaimed Manassas, VA, coaching academy. Jason also holds the NSCAA Director of Coaching Diploma.

Reflecting on his time at Manassas, Carney said, “Coaching at grass roots level in the USA has really helped me develop. Those little details that I ignored at Preston have to be used in this environment of coaching. We have to squeeze every ounce of effort and ability out of the grass roots player. It’s a challenge, but one that improves you as a person and as a coach.”

In 2008 Jason moved to Portland, Oregon, where he is now the Director of Coaching for Foothills Soccer Club and where he continues to inspire and challenge players at every level to play with intelligence along with technique so they can reach their full potential.

Carney is also the author of the best-selling book, Soccer Intelligence.
