The course was run over two weekends with one evening session for first aid and one for child protection, the first weekend was a thorough training of all the coaching sessions plus a writen exam , and the second weekend is mainly assessments consisting of a 20 minuet session you have to write and carry out, (you will get a weeks notice and a video to help plan this ), you will use your fellow coaches as players for your session and help them in thiers. I found the course very good it isn't difficult, you don't have to be a football expert to pass,as they will give you all the support you need,you can get a course breakdown from the FA website, i hope this has been of some use and good luck</P><P>SteveWed, 14 May 2008 21:14:37 GMTcardmanhttp://www.bettersoccercoaching.com/soccerforum/Topic443-4-1.aspxHi, I am interested in doing this course and have noticed that prices differ depending on which association you go with, Is this the same course? eg, Hertfordshire charge £180 whilst Middlesex charge £115. Secondly, can anybody give me an idea as to how the course is run, I believe that you have to run a 20min coaching session (does this happen on the day?) I want to be prepared and not go into this cold, could anyone advise?</P><P>Cheers, GrahamWed, 14 May 2008 18:28:14 GMTGraham M
