"Soccer Intelligence - Age-Appropriate Training" impressively demonstrates how the complex game of soccer can be perfectly adapted to the mental and physical abilities of children and adolescents through age-appropriate training across four different developmental stages, along with a new competition menu that gradually promotes game intelligence. In Horst Wein's internationally recognized soccer development model, motor learning goes hand in hand with cognitive learning. Every player learns to "read" the game correctly from the age of 8, thanks to the emphasis the author places on perception skills and decision-making in all his age-specific programs. Instead of instructing, the focus is on stimulation, and rather than providing solutions, coaches are encouraged to present problems. This richly illustrated work.
