Kwik Goal Soccer Agility Ball

Reviews

" We use this to train our Goalies on our Girl Mite team. The only caveat is you have to roll it on the slower side to get the "funky" bounces. When rolled at high speed it doesn't take odd hops as we were hoping. We also tried it in a scrimmage to make the strikers and mid fielders have to move more, but as I state, when moving at high speeds it tends to go straight. "

Mylec All Purpose Steel Goal, Red

Reviews

" I was surprised with the quality of this goal. We so far have only used it inside so I can't say how it is with wind or a super fast ball hitting it. But indoors it is great. Easy to set up if you follow the directions. "

" The assembly was easy. The goal is light enough to move around yet sturdy enough for play by my goalie in training. He can play street hockey with or without his rollerblades and has a blast. The middle support bar up the back is a great addition. It provides stability and "It looks like our practice goal!" It passed my budding player's test's with flying colors. "

Reviews

" Bought Cintz ladder along with other Cintz Products for school. The products are as described. The ladders can be used as two 15 ft. The quality is good and the price is very affordable. I am satisfied with the purchase and Cintz products and will shop again. Thanks "

" I bought this ladder as it was the cheapest option available. But when it comes to the quality, it has no compromises. The rungs can be adjusted and the ladder can be seperated into two halves. I am also very satisfied with the Cintz Service. The ladder came the same week I ordered, packed good and in excellent condition. "

" A economy-quality agility ladder at an economical price. Keep mind while it works quite well for individual training, it is not extremely heavy duty nor does it have the features of professional (e.g., much more expensive) grade agility ladders: "

Reviews

" It took my son and me about 45 to put it together; that was actually quite a lot of fun in itself. It really works! You kick and ball into it and it sends it right back. My 7 year old said, "I don't need a goalie! "

" Played soccer my whole life - always looking for a wall since you get 100x the touches as a game or practice. This is surprisingly sturdy and VERY well made. Wish'ed I had it 30 years ago. The ball springs back better than a wall. "

" Works well for soccer season training and also good for water polo training. BTW- If you sell this for water polo now I get royalties for figuring out that it has a multi-purpose. ; ) "

adidas Tournament Ball Bag (Black)

Reviews

" This is a great ball bag for a coach! I carry 8 soccer balls, 16 practice jerseys, and cones in this bag with room to spare. The zipper pouch will hold your keys and wallet as well. Worth the money. I have 3 other inexpensive bags that get left at home and am thinking of buying another one of these for football and basketball season! "

"Got this to replace a previous bag that was developing a lot of holes. The nylon bottom is pretty good at resisting abrasions from my son dragging it across the parking lot, and the little pocket is extremely handy for keeping car keys, phone, and other stuff I don't need in my pockets while I am coaching. Shoulder straps and a grab handle make it easy to carry too. All in all, a very good bag, for a very reasonable price. "

" Replaced my standard mesh bags with this one this season, had issues with other bags tearing, not so with this one. Very durable. "

Review

"These gloves have a unique way of protecting your fingers from bending backwards or getting jammed by the ball without compromising your ability to handle the ball. My 10 year has had the opportunity to use several different pairs of gloves and these are his favorite. So far, they have held up for a tough season, but I do see wear on them and wonder how long the face of the glove will hold up. I will buy these again and recommend them."

adidas Men's Samba NUA Soccer Shoe

Review

"After a lot of searching, I zeroed in on the Samba NUA, and I haven't regretted it. I've had it for about 4 months now, and it shows no signs of wear and tear, other than reshaping itself slightly to my foot's structure. While playing, it feels light and comfortable, with soft lining on the inside. The heel is not the thickest, but then again, these are soccer shoes, not basketball. The sole is great and has a good grip on the court, with Adidas's tried and tested Samba model. As far as looks go, the black one doesn't look so good when you see it up close, with the gold looking pretty cheap. The white does look better. Adidas probably realized that too, and that's why they were selling the black ones at a very low rate of $24.95. At that rate, and for the way it feels when I play, I wouldn't care if it was colored bright pink! :D If you plan to use it as a regular sneaker as well, be warned. The lack of a solid heel can come back to bite you, if you walk a lot, as I found out from experience. But if you plan to use it only while playing, or for trips where you're not going to walk to much, its a great shoe."

Review

"First, I want to say that this jacket is very well made. The material has weight to it and the lining is a soft fabric. I also like the fact that the pullover is waterproof. I gave this as a birthday gift, to my son's fiance. She is a girls high school assistant soccer coach, and was thrilled at receiving such a quality product. I would recommend this product to anyone considering it. I'd like to mention that the cost was reasonable, too."

The Soccer Coaching Bible (Paperback)

2009-11-23T13:10:00.000-08:00

Reviews

"This is a great collection of articles from experienced coaches and trainers - many of them well-known names. Coaches at any level will benefit from the insights offered. Topics cover a wide range from the philosophical (coaching principles and objectives) through adminstrative (club, team adn league management) and nuts and bolts (training for specific outcomes, developing training activities, fitness)."

"I bought this book when I first began coaching High School soccer. This book covers a variety of topics, most of which were not in any way applicable to my program. I gave this book three stars because I firmly believe that a book which calls itself "The Soccer Coaching Bible" should be far more usable by far more people than just the high-end club coaches (who frankly, probably don't need the help). There were some very useful discussions on tactics and strategy, but for the most part this book has sat on the shelf. Some very big name coaches contributed to this work, and there is a lot of information here, but most of it will be completely not useful to the majority of coaches who could really use a soccer 'bible'."

"Nicely organized book for any soccer coach or aspiring coach. This covers ground that some books tend to miss. We've used this in our youth clinics and drill instruction. I enjoyed it and recommend it to anyone that will be putting time into the development of athletes and/or teams."

Champion Sports Multi-Sport Net Pitch Back Screen

Review

"Champion Sports Multi-Sport Net Pitch Back Screen is a nice heavy duty piece of equipment. I had a pitch back when I was a kid, but it was not nearly this nice. I like the fact that you can kick a soccer ball on the ground and it will pop up back to you so that you don't have to bend over."

Wilson Pro Kick

Reviews

"I was hesitating to buy this product for my 13 year-old nephew because I wasn't sure if it was something that would help him practice for his kicking skills. It was a hit at his birthday party and he is having a blast using the kicker to practice for fall try outs. I am also happy with the Wilson brand and found that the company was one of the cheapest places that I could find online to purchase the Pro Kicker."

"I bought this item for my son for Christmas. He loves it and makes field goal kicking a breeze. It was better quality than I expected (well built.)"

Countdown Timer
"Timers used for league soccer matches with youth referees. Timers were easy to set and functioned without problems -- good value for price. Only detracting feature is that the time has no clock mode for this mode -- would recommend to any soccer league that needs inexpensive countdown timers."
