| I must say its good to see people getting involved who mouth off as the usual story is a parent constantly mouths off but doesn't offer any solutions or help at all so good on ya! I am puzzled though by Fi. Its great what you're doing but how do you manage to fit it in with all the washing and ironing and cleaning?

| The first few matches were painfully nerve wracking, I didn't sleep well the night before worrying if I'd selected the right players for the right positions. Any new coach goes through this I suppose. I've been told that I now shout louder than I used to. As I'm sure that most of you have experienced the frowns and tutts as the parents puzzle as to why you've not started a talented player (it's because he needs to learn to play as a team and pass the ball) or why you've not put some strapping great lad in centre defence (because he has a tendancy to run off up the pitch and I want some there who knows how to play the position). I find the blokes at work a good sounding board for ideas and also, for when I've heard a new footballing term. This site is proving extremely useful so thank you to the powers that be for setting it up.

| Hi all, My name is Wayne, and have been coaching my oldest son's team for the last 4 years. Am currently with the under 12's this season. Played soccer up until 1992 when i tore my interior cruciate ligament. Been at Panorama Football club, in Johannesburg for the last 4 years. We have local training sessions for coaches, but do not get FIFA levels. Would love to correspond with other coaches in the U.K., and maybe get a couple of teams over here for a tour or for a couple of "International Club Friendlies". My passion is knowing that i have assisted kids to become the best that they can be, on and off the field. This is my age groups second year of playing on a full field, and the offside rule. We are in the second division and on top of the log. We have played 6, won 3, drawn 2 and lost 1. I am enjoying this site, with the coaching tips etc, but if anyone would like to contact me, they can on : herwitch@diagonalgroup.co.za Any coaching tips etc, would be highly appreciated. Ta, Wayne Herwitch

| Well now, we would not want to have to show you guys a thing or 2 about football now, will we lads? hee hee I have not had any mail to my pvt adress, it is alot easier to communicate as we have 1 hour a day of internet usage, between 12h00 and 13h00, at the office, but emails are up all the time. I have never been overseas - i know - SHOCKING!! However, it looks as if i am off to Paris, 2nd week in October, and have told my Fiance' that i have to go to England, To THE KOP. So if anyone ones to meet up with a South African, who only drinks cold beer (ha ha) and have a natter, feel free to contact me. I will advise of final dates etc, but would love to meet up with some English folk. Suggestions of where to go, stay, etc would also be appreciated, ta
