Designed for coaches and football fans interested in the theory of football, this handbook is a must-read for anyone looking to understand the foundations that football is built on.
It started with a question, “What are the fundamentals of football?”


Whilst there are hundreds of books that look into the specific
principles of coaches like Jurgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola, and Marcelo
Bielsa, there is no core, distilled text on the key principles of the
game.


Until now.


Join best-selling author and coach – Peter Prickett – as he puts
football under the microscope and breaks it down into its constituent
parts. By addressing the two primary phases – in-possession and
out-of-possession – the book examines the five attacking and five
defending principles, plus the transitions between each phase, to reveal
the underlying heart of the beautiful game.


These principles have underpinned coach education for decades and
largely been unchallenged. When examining them, other deeper values
emerge to support the one true principle – to score.


Designed for coaches and football fans interested in the theory of
football, this handbook – filled with more than 90 illustrations and
diagrams – is a must-read for anyone looking to understand the
foundations that football is built on.

Peter Prickett is an FA affiliate tutor with a decade of experience
coaching with various organisations, and the author of the
internationally best-selling books on “Developing Skill: Guides to 3v3
Soccer Coaching”. He was one of the first coaches in England to obtain
the UEFA B Futsal qualification, and has a Masters in Performance
Football Coaching.
