Coaching Philosophy
Soccer is meant to be enjoyable for children, with the primary goal being fun. As a coach, your main objective is to ensure that every child has a good time during games and training sessions. Excessive pressure for results can be detrimental to their experience.
Youth soccer is about more than wins and losses; it's about fun, team bonding, and personal development. Proper soccer development involves age-appropriate activities that allow players to understand and enjoy the game. This includes equal playing time, learning techniques through fun games, and experiencing different positions.
Edgewood SC emphasizes respect for the game, players, opponents, referees, and parents. The aim is for players to leave with improved character, not just soccer skills. We aim to bring the community together around a mutual love for the sport.
