Format:Paperback
This is an excellent book to read, if like myself you have gone from touchline parent to hands on coaching and running a junior football team. It guides you through the maze of what is expected of you and what you should expect from the children and how to approach and deal with the parents. Have been coaching junior football for a year now and still look through the book for guidance. It is strictly as the title says. Excellent book

Format:Paperback
This is a great book. If, like me, you got into football coaching by being a touchline parent helping out at training and matches for your sons football team, and you are now looking to get more involved and take your FA Level 1 badge and / or coach a team, then this book is a must-read. Even though it's not packed with loads of drills like other books are, it goes into more detail of other areas that aren't covered by those books.

Other books I can recommend to for essential reading after this one are "Coaching the Coach: A Complete Guide How to Coach Soccer Skills Through Drills" and "Coaching Mini Soccer: A Tried and Tested Program of Essential Skills and Drills for 5 to 10 Year Olds" (both by Richard Seedhouse) and then "Soccer Academy: 100 Defending Practices and Small Sided Games" and "The Soccer Academy: 140 Overload Games and Finishing Practices" (both by Michael Beale).

Want to know a book to avoid ? - "101 Great Youth Soccer Drills: Skills and Drills for Better Fundamental Play" by Robert Koger. The drills are really confusing, even to more experienced coaches than myself that I've shown them to.
