I am going to be making a full curriculum for our programs this summer. One that a brand new coach could follow with a new team. There are many curriculums out there for higher level teams but not so many for lower level ones. Attached are the ages I will make them for.
Many curriculums out there are too complicated for new coaches, or go advanced way too quick. My goal is to make something very easy to understand but also develops them at a rapid rate. Ive made one every year however I haven’t done one where I plan out every single practice.
One big struggle we have is the teams I coach, or the ones with my really good coaches develop very well, but teams with newer coaches somewhat stagnate. Part of that is simply experience etc but some of it are just bad choices in activities. My goal is to fix that.
With all that said I am not perfect by any means. I haven’t been satisfied with what I have made each year. If any coach is interested in putting heads together and making 1 together I am game. @TexasCoachMike @jeramye @CoachesLetsChat @FCDrewCampbell @jKokkoris8 @Everyone

And will take any suggestions / resources others have as well

The ones I have are okay. I like some but definitely need more. Skills based activities for new kids 4-6 years old.

My new role at my current club will be coaching:leading the u5-u8 program. Would love to contribute and learn more about designing/implementing experiences for the young ones, & provide a resource for the many volunteer parents who jump in and help
@JacobBrownDOC Would love to be included in this. My current club is about 18 months into testing out our curriculum that I used most of the same resources to build, along with some others
