The coach-educator knows the game and understands the children but not everything. However, the coach-educator must have a very good understanding of philosophies of grassroots football. Letting children play and be happy is the most important thing for coach educator than winning and losing. Football can convey values such as respect, team work, friendship, healthy lifestyle etc.
The coach-educator must teach through encouragement and joy but letting kids play is the most important thing.
