PHASE 1 REVIEW. FUTSAL, COACH EDUCATION , CLUB MOVE !! THINK THATS EVERYTING !

Most know but for those who don't ,most leagues operate  2 phases to enable promotion relegation , phase one goes from September to December phase 2 January to April .That allows teams who are struggling to be put down a league whilst teams that's results have been favourable to put up a league ! or that's the plan.
Why I hear you ask did two teams that we beat last year get promoted and not us then whilst we only lost one game , the simple answer is !I don't know "!!
Saying that I don't really see a massive amount of difference in the two leagues and think three or four of the teams we have played this year can do well in the division above cant remember the name of it but in old money it is Div 4 of 7 .!. For me it would be a major boost for the kids /parents and me to see progress in a kind of cosmetic sense I think in real terms progress is clear to see .I'm a great believer in coach education and "growth  mind-set" my CPD hours last year was 75 hours I only need 3 hours to retain my level 1 certificate there  was also 16 hours in there on the  Coerver youth diploma  http://www.coerver.co.uk/youthdiploma     that for some reason the FA don't recognise although Real Madrid , AC Milan , Arsenal ,the Japan football federation , Newcastle United do ! the mind boggles .One of the best ways to increase coaching knowledge is  youtube the drills, sessions on there are endless , whilst following the right coaches on twitter who post up session after session is a must .Most of the drills I use are from pro academy's and I have been lucky enough (the harder I work he luckier I get !!!) to have been invited to shadow an u/9 pro  academy coach this Thursday 5/12/14 , I just do what it says on the tin watch he or she  work see what they  do with the  players how they  talk to them what technical info they  give how much  etc etc . Again everyone wins the pro club educates a coach the coach educates the players the players get better enabling the pro club have a bigger pool of players to pick from , really isn't rocket science !.Hopefully this will continue after xmas for a few more sessions maybe a  a month but I working on that bit !My FA  level 2 coaching badge starts on 6th Feb the level 2 so im told its main focus is 18 year olds  plus, but my main reason for doing it is I can the go on to  finish my youth award 3 then  my advanced youth award UEFA B is my holy grail maybe in a couple of years but who knows I may even go further .
Futsal has been a massive success for us, bearing in mind I only started it as a BHFC BLACK training session we now have up to 30 kids attending over  2 nights Trevor will be doing Fridays with Jake and after xmas Mondays will be me and Jake once we have enough money in the futsal fund I will be looking to buy the samba Futsal goals which will enable us to host our own mini tournaments and friendlies . Adding to that LOASS who come in after us also have up to 30 kids attending there sessions be interesting to see whether  our area will start to produce better technical players over time as a result of Futsal . So its been a progressive year I think the club move was most definitely the way forward we couldn't have been made more welcome by Buckhurst Hill Fc from top to bottom the playing surfaces are superb great facilities and for me inviting us to there end of season presentation when we was banned !  from our last clubs was a real nice gesture .
So we await to see if the open top bus is required ! but I feel  the league will be stronger even if we stay put , but here's hoping .The wife is working hard on our match report books for those new this year they are a binder of reports from matches over phase one , action shots from games with a few things we have added this year , we did it last year and a few asked if we could do it again so hopefully they will be done before xmas if my wife working for 5 demanding  lawyers allows, the big Russian property tycoon will have  to wait eh!
