North Texas Olympic Development Staff

Transcription

1 North Texas Olympic Development Staff The North Texas Staff is a collection of coaches with varying levels of experience in the game as a player and/or as a coach. All are first class people who are excellent role models for the elite youth players in the program. As professional educators, the staff is child-centered. The development of the individual player within the framework of the team is the focus. The NTX ODP Staff Coaches are selected based on the following 4 criteria: Integrity, Character, Experience, and Qualifications. We have a mix of backgrounds and professional experience including Collegiate Coaches, High School Coaches, and Club Coaches. None of the staff are coaching the same age group that they work with on a daily basis. To avoid any conflicts of interest, Club Coaches work with a different age group, and gender, so no preferential treatment is given to any players they may coach. The ODP coaching philosophy is player-centered using a soft approach, few words, and One ounce of theory to a ton of practice" with lots of praise, clear, concise, simple, and honest feedback, without shouting. Young players are given opportunities to make decisions and solve problems - we give them cues/clues not answers. ODP provides an efficient, yet relaxed, developmental training environment where the truly gifted players will excel. The program is player development, not results, oriented. Practice is deliberate and progresses from simple to complex. Games are high level. We have found, over the years, this developmental approach speeds up learning to create the best all around experience for the elite youth soccer player. The purpose of the NTX Olympic Development Program is to identify and develop the top players in the state, in partnership with the competitive clubs and teams statewide. Working together with our competitive leagues, clubs and teams, we complement each other and, through this process, the level of play within the state is impacted in a positive manner. We welcome new recruits to the ODP staff with a solid track record of success in coaching. Interested coaches may me, Gary Williamson [email protected] with a current coaching resume.
