Youth Soccer: From Science to Performance blends contemporary child-focussed sports science theory with youth specific coaching practice to help create evidence soccer development strategies for children.
As the adult game has increased in popularity, youth soccer has also seen significant expansion in recent years. The popularity of the youth game is set to continue. Young boy and girl players wish to emulate professional soccer stars and the professional game, often with long-term financial rewards in mind, is increasingly keen to develop young talent.

growth of physiological systems
development of motor and perceptive skills
paediatric environmental physiology
prevention of injury
diet and nutrition
youth fitness and skills training
effective teaching and coaching of juniors
the role of football academies.
