Why did you choose to coach grassroots? Like a lot of coaches, I started coaching to help out in my sons team 7 years ago. I then took over the team when the head coach left. It’s very rewarding watching players grow in confidence both individually and as a team.
It’s all about developing technical knowledge and teamwork. I’ve been involved in football for 40 years and just love being involved.
