[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I already get him a private swim instructor. He has private swim to correct his body forms and boost his confidence.

I don't think my husband will say yes to get him a private soccer coach. He loves soccer, and he is not good enough for tryout to get in a team/club with real coach. It does not seem like sam skill clinic is a good choice. If there is a cheaper option for private coach with high schooler, I would be fine. Are there better option with real coach instead of parent volunteer coach in gaithersburg/rockville area? [/quote]

I guess the first thing is if he is in HS, and you’re doing the research for him, something is broken down here.

There are great individual resources if you / he don’t want a private coach.

Dribble Up is fun - he can improve his foot skills from that just because he is getting touches and working on very very basics.

Techne and Coerver apps are similar, but they’re best used when a parent or partner keeps them accountable to executing correctly. Coerver is a better linear progression, that utilizes chunking to build skills, Techne sort of throws you in the deep end - and is a lot less linear.

There are boatloads of solid YouTube videos too for wall drills, foot skills, etc. and many that are built as “practice tracks” or workout routines. Those are all free.

All said, skills classes are great too. Just from a “getting more touches” aspect. And most skills classes utilize a learning / coaching plan from Coerver (or with Coerver roots). BUT 1 day a week won’t cut it. At the VERY least, he needs to be spending 10 minutes every day on touches. [/quote]
