Planning Soccer Practice Effectively by Scott Carlson
Many youth soccer coaches have coached multiple seasons and they feel comfortable with their knowledge about soccer and coaching. This comfort leads them to believe they know everything they need to know about coaching soccer and they become far too complacent simply “winging it” during practice.
If you are one of these coaches, you are doing your players a great disservice because the simple fact is, your players will not learn as much if you don’t plan practice beforehand. A plan will allow you to put together a list of topics you hope to teach your team and cover as much ground as possible during the season.
Your time will be utilized to the fullest if you operate in this fashion. This will greatly increase your chances of achieving soccer coaching success as defined by two factors: 1. Did your players learn and improve their game 2. Did they have enough fun to play soccer again next season. It all comes back to your practice designs.
Considering your team is made up of kids, some of whom will have very short attention spans, a fluid practice where you move seamlessly from drill to drill will decrease the chance your players will get distracted. It will also show them that you “know what you are doing,” making it more likely that they will listen and learn.
Your kids will not have fun and will not improve if you lose control of practice and you are much more likely to get to the point of madness when you are winging it. If you plan everything out before the time arrives, practice will go much smoother and the kids will learn and love the game, and you will look like a superior coach.
I also know that not everyone has the time or the ability to plan out practice, so I have put together a book with 20 original and pre-designed soccer practice plans, made up of my most effective drills. If you are short on soccer or coaching knowledge or insanely busy, these practices can be the blueprint to your entire soccer season.

The leagues:
Each of 145 countries has its own pyramid of leagues. Every league consider 8 players, and every league has 4 sub-leagues with also 8 players. Two best teams from the 4 sub-leagues goes to the main league, and two teams from the mail league goes to the sub-leagues.
The pyramid of leagues look like this:

Mail and conference. Each of leages leagues have own forum and post for exchange personal messages.
The registration:
Each registration will be verify by administration. By this we want to avoid automatic enormous registration and we want to make sure that players registration is from country where he want to play, because that is stringently. After administration verify player, he will get own place in league on the end of the pyramid leagues, or in the case that some of existing players exclude, new player will be put on his place, and he will continue game.
