Children can be introduced to a ball as soon as they begin to walk, not with the intention of developing footballers right away, but simply as a way to bond, play, and enjoy time together. In many Latin cultures, this is quite common. A parent, often a father, will naturally use a ball as a tool for connection and play. As a result, children develop comfort and familiarity with the ball from a very early age, giving them a natural head start in coordination and ball manipulation. This is what’s possible for a three year-old, if a parent has some knowledge on what to encourage.

As a coach of a U6 team my first training session would be inside a meeting room with parents only. Parents would learn what their responsibility is along with managed expectations. We would create a WhatsApp Group for Homework assignments focused on Ball Mastery. Simple stuff!

Congratulations to our Ladies from Japan winning their World Cup Group with the maximum 9pts, 11 goals and 0 against! Remarkable considering how few girls/ladies play the game here in Japan. Our strategy has focused around individual Technical Skill Training from the youngest ages. Mastering the very basic skills which allows for more advanced skills to be acquired. Seems like it was a good plan when we created a Technical Skills Corner on National Television targeted towards very young girls using the currently National Team Captain at the time, Aya Miyama. This series ran for 1 full year introducing Ball Mastery exercises. #FIFAWomensWorldCup #jfa #weleague #nadeshiko #Japan #Tokyo #Football #Soccer

All the best coaching in the world at the youngest ages is rendered useless if a child hasn’t developed the ability to focus their attention. You can bring the best coach in the world to your child’s training session and if they don’t pay full attention absolutely nothing takes place. Similar to inside a classroom where you can bring the teacher of the year to your child’s classroom and if they don’t focus and pay attention, learning does not take place. So it’s not always the case of good or bad coaching it’s often the case a child’s lack of ability to learn by not focusing on what is being taught. This is especially true for the youngest ages. This video is an example of a 5yr old child focusing their attention, trying to control an object with their feet, the ball. This becomes a mental task, married together with the action of movement, making it a physical task as well. The brain loves to learn while moving. Combining, mind and body, thinking and feeling, this allows the cerebellum, the seat of the unconscious mind, to create a chemical signature of this experience, which is emotions. Emotions are the on off switch for learning. Couple in a parent being present, this becomes a shared experience together, where the child is constantly seeking the parents approval, attention, and praise which creates a chemical electrical process in the body which is emotions. This facilitates, deep learning, and long-term memory, all disguised as playtime. A parent just being present allows for this experience to take place. A child this young rarely starts playing or exercising with a ball without someone being present. Being present and sharing this experience together is key for the learning process to take place. These movements are being stored in the non-declared memory which makes this implicit learning when you do something so many times it becomes natural and outside your conscious awareness. Like riding a bicycle or driving a car.
