The ICA Bronze Coaching License

Module 3 - Skill Development

The most important factor in winning games are not tactics or formations, it is the quality of individual
"technique". Team tactics are totally dependent upon each player's ability to execute the technical
components of those tactics. For tactics to succeed you must have players who can pass the ball
diagonally behind a defense, control the ball in tight areas, dribble past an opponent, or win head balls
in set-plays. 

Without players who possess good technique, your time invested in team organization and principles
of play will be fruitless. With players of high technical ability, the foundation will be strong to apply
those techniques in skillful and tactical situations. 

It is of paramount importance that coaches understand how quality technique is developed and implement a coaching regimen to challenge players to a level of technical excellence. "Practice does not make perfect"
rather " practice makes permanent."

To teach technique, coaches must be able to break down each component and relay that information to
their players. The technique must be isolated and performed until it becomes habit. 

This section covers the skills in Passing, Ball Control, Shooting, Heading, Dribbling and Defending and
Goalkeeping. Each skill is explained in detail and features and introductory chapter describing the tactical considerations for the topic you select.
