What it tells you
Beard's second plane book is aimed at people coaching youth soccer, and it rode to London next to the tactics history. One book for the Premier League and one for the under-nines covers most of the bases.

The book
Coaching Soccer For Dummies
National Alliance for Youth Sports and Greg Bach · 2006 · nonfiction
Written by Greg Bach with the National Alliance for Youth Sports for parents who got volunteered to coach. Richmond pays its staff in pounds and its manager has never seen offside explained. Honestly the right book.
