<p>MySoccerGuide Powered by Matt Avellino Enterprises is proud to present it&#8217;s newest Soccer training series. This innovative training method bring together progressive, step-by-step process for players, parents and coaches to systematically improve skills, tactic and physical fitness.  The Spirrs Network is proud to announce the long awaited launch of MySoccerGuide: The Professional Guide to Coaching Youth Soccer.</p>
<p><em>What&#8217;s All the BUZZ behind the Training?</em></p>
<p>The highly motivating book was written for hard-working players trying to improve your game,  dedicated parents looking to help their child practice at home, and volunteer coaches that are interested in becoming more knowledgeable on  soccer and improving their team.</p>
<p>The book uses verbal descriptions, hand-made diagrams, and home videos to fully demonstrate every drill and technique of The 10 Stage Progressional Training Program. This training program begins with young players and systematically takes them through 10 stages of soccer development. It is a progressional training program because the players must learn the basic drills first in order to build on them and perform the more advanced drills. These stages are not only described to players, coaches, and parents through words, diagrams, and videos; but the age specifications of each stage are included in addition to when every skill is used during a game. All guesswork is taken out of the equation! Players who complete The 10 Stage Progressional Training Program will be playing soccer with technical mastery, tactical precision, and a high level of fitness.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.spirrsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/overview-avopics.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1931" title="overview-avopics" src="http://www.spirrsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/overview-avopics.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="171" /></a></p>
<p><em>SPIRReview and </em><em>Who&#8217;s the Man behind the Method?</em></p>
<p>The author of this book, Matt Avellino is neither a professional author nor a professional  publisher.  He is a professional soccer  player and coach. His specialty isn&#8217;t hidden in something he is not. The language used and the instructions demonstrated makes the series easy to understand and easy to use. The series is set up in a way much like coaches speak to players or parents speak to children. It is down to earth and it gets to the point without confusing terminology or overly complicated training pattern. It gets the right information to it&#8217;s audience directly without complication. The series is direct and effective for players, parents and coaches to follow, as the valuable information can be uses and implemented as soon as they leave the computer.  I enjoyed the videos included. They depicted highly dedicated players with various skill levels, which is very motivating for anyone watching them. Overall, the instructions, videos and easy 10 step process easy breaks down the most essential parks of improving ones technical, tactical and physical ability as a soccer player and leads the way in becoming a better player.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-943 alignright" title="Winning Formula" src="http://www.spirrsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/winning_formula.jpg" alt="Winning Formula" width="144" height="198" /></p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t had a chance to take a look at this book or these set of tapes, you really have to find some time to do so. Really some remarkable information gathered from soccer&#8217;s history, cultivated and presents in the most direct and compelling way.  This set of informational tapes not only sums up decades of soccer evolution and depicts the changing trend in soccer of the years, it also set the tone of the rapidly growing game in an era when soccer instruction seemed so indifferent.  Truly, a break through in its time, providing the soccer world with invaluable technical and tactic instruction. </p>
<p>When I was in middle school, I remember when my father first brought home the set of VHS tapes and the book. Then, he often bought a lot of soccer material. Every week, I could expect a different package with books, tapes, or equipment to arrive in the mail.  Exciting times for a kid who was always curious about new books, toys and things to watch.  Anyway, I would watch these particular tapes and browse through the book meticulously taking notes on what I thought would be most useful to me at the time.  Not the most typical thing to do during lunch time in the cafeteria at that age, but nonetheless it was fun and really helpful.</p>
<p>I would suggest certainly taking a look at this before you get any other newer tactical or positional DvD or book out there, because I think it truly sets a educational standard on what kinds of materials should and should not exist on the market.  Although the series was created a couple decades ago, it still provides information that holds true to the game. Perhaps an updated Winning Formula is due? I&#8217;ll be waiting.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-580" title="Goal 1-2-3" src="http://www.spirrsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/7000s.jpg" alt="" width="128" height="150" />Does &#8220;Goal 1-2-3&#8243; resonate any fond memories for anyone? Or do you even recognize this title? I mean we see the words and combinations thereof in almost every soccer product and DvD out there, but this particular title comes from a very popular green cassette box released in 1989. Have you figured it out yet?<br />
If your thinking the first set of training tapes by Wiel Coerver, you are right on. Yes, &#8220;Coerver&#8221; of Coerver Coaching. Now, world famous for his intuitive training method and his magnificent contribution to technical development, he and his team has expanded far from the realms of just a video and a book.<br />
I have to say I really grew up on these sets of videos. Although then, with the limitations of technology and having to maneuver a VHS cassette deck to view area of interest on a video that had slow motion technology at best was a bit cumbersome, I did survive.  I took notes and drew out little diagrams to remember technical moves and combination of more advanced skills.  It was fun. I remember spending long hours rewinding, fast forwarding, slowing down and recording all the different little moves that I would later take on a small note pad to the park. <br />
What a great set of technical instruction. This is one of the classics that leaves its marks on soccer&#8217;s establishing history of skills training and technical development. So, a great big thanks to this series&#8217; contribution to my own development and I hope it continues to reach developing players throughout the world, inspiring them to be empowered by the great resources available.<br />
More on Coerver Coaching, Training method, and skills development in later post. As for now, like many of the initial post. Cheers and special thanks. Stay tuned for more on everything Coerver.<br />
