I received this book yesterday, I have read/studied most of the drills and they look very good. I'm currently a coach of a soon-to-be under 13's team and the drills will come in very handy for their training sessions. Of course the usual suspects of drills are in there but there's also a lot of good new drills, which I will be going over with them. The book concentrates on all aspects of developing youngsters abilities and rather than boring drills the kids will enjoy the drills in this book. There are also a few pages on goalkeeper training, which I will defiantly being using. Whether your using the book for new ideas or to recap on the basics I highly recommended this book.

Uses a very traditional and out dated form of coaching that is based on results as well as development (he talks a lot about formations, positioning and clearing the ball from certain areas of the pitch as quick as possible). At the younger ages it should be only about development. Also many of the exercises are very linear and repetitive which is has no representation to the variety and richness of the real game. However on a positive note there are a few good dribbling games for ages below 8. I would not recommend this book.

The drills are really confusing, even to more experienced coaches than myself that I've shown them to. One to avoid in my opinion.
