The first step to understanding young players
This groundbreaking new course encourages coaches to know as much about their young players as they do about the game. This one-day course provides those involved in youth football with the knowledge to understand their players. This course provides an introduction to The FA Youth Award, which looks at how to coach young players as well as what to teach them.

FA Youth Award - Module 1
Developing the Environment
Innovation in coaching young players
This first of three Youth Award modules presents a child-centred approach to the development of our young players. The award recognises the important role the coach can have upon levels of motivation and self-esteem and gives practical advice to help the coaching session become an "effective environment for learning". Suitable for coaches at all levels this innovative new look at coaching will create coaches who have an understanding of children and young players as well as football.

Building on the knowledge learnt in Module One, this course provides practical sessions and workshops that help coaches to develop practices appropriate for the age, maturity, ability and experience levels of their players. Coaches will be expected to plan, deliver and evaluate their own, and other coaches’ practices during the course. This second module in The FA Youth Award is most suited to club coaches who are keen to improve their own personal development as a coach of young players of any age.
