Summary

Creating the right type of person to be successful in the game of football goes well beyond the training pitch. The need for coaches, parents, clubs and national organisations to pay far more attention to the personal details of development is essential if we are going to improve the number of top quality young players we produce.

This goes as far down as the need to teach and instruct appropriate appearance, values, and education – all with the goal in mind that whatever the outcome of a young player’s career (either a long lasting career or one that ends at 18) we should be confident in knowing that the person will not only be able to deal with footballing demands but can be prepared to excel in other important areas of life.

The following chapters of this book look at a range of topics that can have a huge impact on the development of the person (education, life skills, influences of others). We must begin to recognise the needs and importance of personal development in all areas of life that can look to benefit footballing performance to give our young players the best chance of making the career they want.
