Welcome to the Footy Coach Blog
newsgrassroots coaching
If you’re a volunteer football coach — the kind who gives up evenings and weekends so kids can play the game they love — this blog is for you.
We’re starting the Footy Coach Blog as a place to share practical coaching tips, drills, and matchday advice. No theory lectures. No jargon. Just things you can actually use on Saturday morning.
What to expect
We’ll be posting regularly on topics like:
- Matchday tips for managing subs, formations, and those tricky half-time talks
- Player development ideas that work for real grassroots teams
- Coaching confidence — because even experienced coaches have days where nothing clicks
Built for coaches like you
Everything we write comes from the same place as the Footy Coach app — a belief that grassroots coaches deserve better tools and better support. You don’t need a UEFA badge to give kids a brilliant experience. You just need a bit of help.
That’s what we’re here for.
See you on the pitch.
