Here is an excellent article from www.KidzFutbol.com. It is a long read, but contains a very informative and well written summary and comparison of the youth futbol (soccer) developmental systems in Spain versus here in Canada. What I found particularly striking was the presented ratios in Spain (as well as in other European countries) of UEFA B/A Licesned coaches to the number of youth players registered (versus the same ratio of Canadian B/A Licensed coaches to players here in Canada), as well as the very demanding curriculum of the coaching course in Spain.
I’d love to hear your thoughts about this topic. Drop me a line here to get the conversation started.
Thanks for sharing my article on the coaching situation in Ontario.
You’re welcome George! It was very well written and was factually based, which we like here! If you are ok with it I may want to re-post some of your other material as well!
Yes no problem, thanks. I have spent most of my life in soccer in Canada and want to see it change for the better and trying to do my part even when I no longer live there!
