KyeP27Coach Rory Episode was AmazingI stumbled into 3four3 because of Coach Rory’s YouTube page, and I’ve found both to be amazing resources for my coaching experiences. I think anyone coaching youth soccer should definitely visit these sites. It has helped me evolve to the modern game of soccer and away from the old methods I was taught in the 80s and 90s.

MeattrayNateBig Picture SoccerAs a parent to 3 soccer kids, who was never into the sport growing up, I'm getting a ton of great perspective. I highly recommend this to parents and coaches.

Ed from FresnoA Must ListenIf you are a coach in the youth game, you need to listen to this show.
-
El Duque de BarçaSurface Talk3 minutes of training course sales (it’s American soccer after all) and then 15 minutes of platitudes and novel ideas (by US standards). No depth. Very black and white. It’s literally talk, or opinion, about a topic and absolutely no in-depth discussion, followed by a few minutes of bumper music ? Reminds me of SNL skit where host brought up an inflammatory topic and told guests to discuss it amongst themselves. Street soccer anecdotes, Rec vs competitive, blah blah blah. Superficial. Throwing grenades and walking away
