Fellow Coaches.In you opinion, why do you think the England Ladies have been knocked out of the World Cup?My own view is that many of the players look mentally tired...What do you think?
Hi, Does anyone have a smart way for giving all your players a number when they are taking part in a trial. Was trying to avoid having to print and laminate and pin numbers onto their backs. How do others manage this when you might have up to 50 kids at a trial and you don't know them all. Any suggestions appreciated. Cheers Tracey

Pre-season fitness fades fast once the league starts. Build conditioning into ball work and use rolling subs well to keep your squad sharp all season.

Coaches from around the world look to Sportplan for coaching confidence.
