 Good but be careful with kids age October 19, 2008
Bought this book for my entire girls U8 team.
Although they were excited this turned out to be difficult for them to read.
The youngest reading level would probably be 3rd grade unless your child is a particularly good reader.
Nonetheless, this book is very good.
Lots of games and pictures and easy to explain concepts.
Definitely what I was looking for, but something my girls weren't quite able to read.
 A Great Book For Kids October 5, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I coach a team of 8 through 10 year old girls, and I bought the book hoping to find an explanation for offside that kids that age could understand.
While that element was only so-so, I found that the book is a great resource for kids in many areas of the game. Truth is, I personally learned some things (like the "Argentina" free kick play) from this book as well.
Some things I liked:
- Most of the book is written in simple terms (there are a couple areas that might confuse kids)
- Puzzles and games and such to keep kids' attention
- Many areas of the game covered from rules to technique
Some things I didn't like:
- While it is for kids, it is not clearly geared to any particular age group, so there are parts that are too complicated for younger kids and still other parts that would seem too "childish" to older kids (overall, I felt it would be most useful to the 8 and 9 year olds on my team).
- The puzzles and games don't do anything to reinforce the information learned in the book. They are just for entertainment.
Overall a very good book, and for 8 bucks, it's definitely worth a buy if soccer is your kid's thing.
The Everything Kids' Soccer Book September 15, 2008
I enjoyed this book as it provided the information I needed to refresh my memory as I committed to coach a girl's soccer team, 8 & 9 year olds.
It provides a great breakdown of information for someone beginning their coaching career or as a refresher for someone who has coached in the past.
Daughter Enjoys January 15, 2007
My daughter has learned a lot from this read, it is informative and talks about rules of the game as well as moves.
Has alot of information, but not enough to capture an 8 year old December 25, 2006
I bought this for my 8 year old and even looked over it myself. It has alot of info but she didn't seem too interested. Maybe she just doesn't like to read - but she did it one day and hasn't touched it in a year. I never wrote my reviews - it's been a year and the book looks like brand new . . . should have saved my money - but is a good source of learning for kids who actually LIKE to read! LOL
