Soccer Videos
Seeing is Believing!

Below is a list of recommended soccer videos for skills improvementfor parents, and for coaches.

Of course, often the two roles are one and the same person.  There is a lot of overlap so keep in mind that nearly all videos are usefull for both the parent, coach, and player.

This list of soccer videos is focused specifically on the basics of soccer for the early youth soccer player. Most of these videos deal with ball handling, control, and managing a youth soccer practice for the most part. There are many more advanced videos on the market that I have not listed.

Also, I have a separate page for other soccer videos your child will like (or any soccer fan for that matter). Check it out.

I have recently also made a separate page for my soccer training videos (starring my son!).

If a review is available, there will be a link to the right of the title. If you have a review of a particular video, please share it. I will gladly post it on the website. Also, if you have any recommended videos that don’t show up on this page let me know.

Soccer for Kids- Getting Started – Here is a review that was posted: ”Actually, checked this out from the library several years ago. My daughter who has turned into a reasonably good soccer player (not necessarily thanks to this video, but...) really liked this video at the age of 7-8 years and actually remembers it. It is a basic resource that will hold their attention and can be the basis for a conversation on what they should be doing on the field. It is not comprehensive, but a good start for young kids in playing fundementals.”


The Fundamentals of Soccer with Stinky Shoe & Coach LaRoo DVD - Here is a review that was posted: ” This production brings it all home; rules, methods of playing and the importance of teamwork. The use of animated characters keeps the kids interested and the coaching fits right in. My kids really liked watching people like themselves learning for the first time. It just made the first trip to the practice a lot better than it could have been. I learned a lot about the rules of the game, so it has helped me to answer questions that my kids ask. There's nothing else like it available and I really recommend it.


Soccer Videos for Coaches

Everything You Need to Know – to Coach Soccer - Here is a review that was posted: ” I was pressed into service as my son's recreational league soccer coach even though I knew very little about the game. I grabbed a few books from the library which were somewhat helpful but I needed to see the skills and drills demonstrated on video. This program was great.My first season went extremely well. I have a card on my desk from the team saying how much they loved playing and learning soccer. Get the tape!”
