One troublesome team member, can you hep?

Help me please, I am coaching 11 yrs and have one member of my team who is making nasty comments towards most of my other team members, before I am forced to raise this issue with her parent (who is never in attendance, only drop off and pick up, and I dont think she would be the easiest parent to deal with either) I am hoping someone can give me some ideas on how to deal with this, should I ask her to sit out or should I try to include her more to force a better relationship, when I have asked her if we can make an effort to play as a team she is clearly telling me, Its not her fault and that she is reacting to others, but i know this is not true, I dont think she will except she is doing anything wrong, if fact she is my biggest trouble maker when it comes to talking, not litening and being disrespectful, to me her team and once even an umpire (at training) HELP PLEASE its upsetting my girls %3A(

What is the best way to defend a tall goalie?

I have short defenders and we will be playing a team in the finals that has a 6ft goalie. Looking for advise on the best way to stop the giant goalie.

How do we teach our team that we are friends but coaches too?

Because my co-coach and I are only 15/16 years old, we are only a few years older than the girls we coach (who are 11-12). This is useful in our ability to relate, but is not when we are trying to be serious and get a point across. We tend to joke around a bit at training in order to make them as enjoyable as possible, but as soon as we try to be serious, the girls assume we are telling them off and sometimes get upset. We have already had parent issues in relation to positions, so we do not want anymore complaints from the parents or girls. If anyone has advice it would be much appreciated, thanks.

First Time Coach Need Guidance for 10 year olds

What easy drills can be used for 10 year olds as I have never coached before. I would like to have some fun games as well if anyone has some easy ones. Throwing skills are needing attention as well.

Identifying Problems

I'm a young coach who is coaching an 11A's team. I find it hard to identify/pick up on the problems within their play. How do you identify these problems in order to fix them? And what are some of these problems (like running flat-footed and release hieght of a pass)? Asked using Sportplan on Mobile

Forcing the pass, not seeing the easy option

How do you get your players to pass to the easy passing option rather than forcing the ball to the player marked by 2 defence. My players are only passing to their favourite team mates not the one in front.

How do you organise/keep your favourite drills

After coaching for 5 years I have a huge amount of session plans (printed and on my computer). I have a number of favourite drills I come back to or (re)discover. I started to collect these drills in a word document table with a label (name, type of activity), a short description and where to find them online, but that is getting out of hand too. I know Sportplan has several ways of storing your session plans (plans/favourites/Myfolders), but I was wondering how people organise their session plans / favourite drills offline on their computer for easy retrieval?

Uncancel My Membeship

How can I uncancel my membership? I am paid up until 12/12/23 but want to continue my membership. Also, how come I can't email your company. It is easy to sign-up, but after that, there doesn't seem to be any support when needed. Thanks!

I have been using Sportplan now for 3 years and can honestly say that I have never repeated the same session twice. My girls are always focused and are improving every year. Thanks Sportplan.

Debbie Cross Australia

What a fantastic tool. The Chalkboard and session tools make an unbelievable difference in making training plans in both time and organization. I will be instructing all of my assistant coaches that this tool must be used for all sessions during the season, so that we may build a club coaching resource library.
