How to plan a season long Player Development Program, a conversation with Carl Wild,

lecturer, author and lead U9’s-U14’s coach at Chester FC

In this episode Carl returns to discuss the topic of player development and how we might approach supporting our players individual development over the long-term.

Carl shares his thoughts on what player development means to him and some of the key elements to player development. We discuss how this can be embedded over the course of the season and how a curriculum can be used to support player development. We also look at session planning, how practices could look and ways to differentiate `squad` practices to `individual` practices.

Carl also talks to us about his second book – Essential Practices for Player Development– and how coaches can use the book to enhance their coaching sessions and support their players.
