Whenever we talk about tactics,
training organization and psychology, always looking for new answers
to improve the soccer we impose on our athletes in Victory Soccer Club. However, although
many coaches have a better sense than I have, many coaches do not
even use coordination in training.
Our brain works in conjunction
with our muscles, functioning as a complete system. This combination,
which we call coordination, allows athletes to perform the
various technical and tactical actions and the more evolved for motor
coordination, athletes can perform various actions with more speed
and efficiency. Remember that even we in daily activities, use motor
coordination to perform the various tasks.
For example, as I write this article, my body is working fine
motor skills. I am using small muscle groups such as the hands on
the keyboard. Write on computer requires fine motor coordination. On
the other hand, walk, jump, run, are actions that require gross motor
skills. We need proper coordination for large muscle groups.
For
soccer players, develop motor skills, is extremely important. In
gross motor skills, the player develops his movement speed and
direction changes for example, while in fine motor coordination, the
player develops a relationship with the ball. Passes for example,
or dribbles, requiring the athlete fine coordination.
We must evolve coordination
of youth, always
The great athletes began early, some of them train with 4 or 5
years. We must begin to train motor skills from an early age, mainly
because your body is developing. If a body is in development, can
also more easily develop motor coordination, so that the athlete can
move the muscles to take to make movements more accurately.
For the player to make a feint, first evaluates the
conditions to do it, gathers emotions that helps to make the feint
like displaying courage or as an option for the game situation. Then
the athlete's brain will send commands to the muscles to perform the
feint. Any movement needs the correct interaction between the nervous
system and muscles, and when this interaction is more evolved, faster
and more accurate movements will be.
Motor coordination is
present in all
Muscles have limits of speed, resistance and strength. This means
that we need to extend those limits, training the muscles. But
however they are strong and resistant muscles, that is not enough,
because to perform movements, we need to work in an organized
manner. The brain must learn to work with the various muscles to do
certain movement, and this is where motor coordination comes in.
In a shot for example, some muscles work more than others, and a
pass are no longer exactly the same muscles working or with the
same intensity. The brain must learn to distinguish which are the
muscles that must work according to the situation, making them work
as a whole, accurately. If the brain can not make muscles move in an
accurate way, things will not go well for the athletes.
Effective coordination
equals love of sport in young athletes
Kids, as we all know, have that desire to make lots of goals and
many feints. But if things do not go well, sooner or later, end up
getting tired and not want to play soccer. You need to anchor the
taste for soccer early on, so that the player likes to be on the
field and really wants to evolve.
The role of the coach, especially for younger kids, is to teach
them to control the ball, the passing and dribbling, so that when
they are 8, 9 or 10 years, are ready to evolve what they have
learned. What I mean here is that the manager must develop the
ability of the athlete while he is young, so that, after some time,
it is capable of doing a little harder and evolve as an athlete.
First, we must teach and then evolve. We should, while they
are young, evolve their ability, so that when they reach the
seniors know how to make various technical and tactical actions, know why
they do it and have the will to do. Only this way we can build
champions.
