Save time and effort planning coaching sessions with our done-for-you Smart Session training plans
"When my daughter asked me to coach her soccer team, I have to admit I was scared. That was until I got hold of Smart Sessions by Soccer Coach Weekly. Now I run skilled drills that make sense to the girls. I am having parents come up to me and indicate their girls are learning so much!"

Hi Coach
Whether you are coaching beginners or experienced players, you probably have to devote a large proportion of your valuable time to researching new ideas balancing it with the demands of work, kids, meal planning, cleaning and everything else.
Here's a solution... Let us do the hard work for you!
Imagine, every week receiving in your email inbox a complete coaching session in PDF format that you can use at a moment's notice without any preparation.
More than that - have a complete library of over 400 done-for-you session plans that you can filter on topic and ability. Simply choose one and save it on your phone or print and take to the pitch.
Thousands of volunteer coaches like you agree that Smart Sessions are the ultimate tool for busy-parent coaches who want to reclaim their time.
“...the most readily accessible coaching sessions out there!”

Claim back your spare time
Remember all that spare time you had before you volunteered to coach? Well, kind of! Smart Sessions are designed to help busy parent coaches claim back their time. There's no need to spend hours in front of your computer planning sessions when we can send you everything you need each week.
Each session only takes 5 minutes to read - you can pick it up just before you start.
You'll need even less time to set up as everything you need is explained and the sessions never require lots of fancy equipment or complicated set ups.
Each Smart Session has a side that explains the structure and set up of the session and a side to explain the specific drill and developments to be used. Just one sheet of paper is all you'll need.
It has the information needed to run a full coaching session of between 45 minutes and 1 hour 20 minutes, including recommendations for a warm-up, the details of the main session, development and game situation.
