What is T.I.C. or Goalkeepers?

T.I.C.is an acronym for

Technique

This is the oundation o all ootball ability and is best developed at a young age. Known as the golden years in Japan it is a critical time or the development o

undamental motor skills in youngsters. Development in primary school aged players is rapid in contrast to that in later years so emphasis on the development o

technique in this period o growth is seen as essential. However, this does not mean that the coach disregards the need to address Technique throughout.

Insight

Cognitive development in primary school aged players is varied and becomes more sophisticated with age and experience (exposure to thinking games).

Ability to understand concepts will vary rom player to player. Thereore Insight starts to become developed through the Junior Licence level as the player starts

to understand more concepts through the coach continually putting the players in match like situations and getting the players to solve problems practically,

thereore gaining valuable game-based experiences.

Communication

The need to communicate becomes more important as the player grows older and develops an understanding o the needs within the game on a team basis

communication can be directly attributed to condence and experience. Hence the greater emphasis on the C in the Senior level.

T.I.C.s are the training and coaching objectives o the National Curriculum identiable within each level according to the age group that is being coached.

Getting a T.I.C. or ootball will help you ocus on the most important part o the players development. In other words, i you look at the Development Goals

together with the training and coaching objectives at each level and aim your training outcomes at those, you will not go ar wrong. However, the three are

not used in isolation and should always be considered together.

How do the Certicate and Licence / Diploma Dier?

The easiest way to defne the distinction that is now being made is as ollows:

Certicate: Coaching competencies will be highlighted and experienced but not ormally assessed at this stage.

Licence / Diploma: Coaches are ormally assessed and deemed competent or not yet competent based on the criteria rom the coaching checklist.

Naturally, a higher order o planning, thinking, observing and organisation would be expected should you wish to qualiy or the licence accreditation. In either

course you will have a number o opportunities on the course to develop your coaching.

Furthering your Coach Education

To build on your knowledge base and urther your coach education your Member Federation and/or Region/Association will conduct regular updates. There will

also be FFA seminars and workshops at regular intervals or you to attend should you wish. For more inormation go to www.ootballaustralia.com.au or your

Member Federation (contacts at rear o manual).

Method o Re-accreditation

Licence / Diploma Level

In order to be re-accredited, every our (4) years a coach will simply need to show that they can display the same competencies as they did when they rst

received their accreditation i.e. Can they plan a (sae) session, organise, use appropriate questioning, modiy etcThis will be done as a practical demonstration

(possibly with your own team) at a local club/association level to make it much easier and less time consuming or all concerned.

Certifcate

Every Four (4) years a coach will need to attend and complete another community (certicate) course to remain accredited.


12/44


How will the course be presented?

Model Sessions

At the start o each module the presenter will conduct model sessions eaturing three components Warm Up, Main Part and Final Part.

Warm Up

As the name indicates, the warm-up is the methodology aimed at increasing the blood fow, gradually raising the body temperature and preparing the muscles

or work. This is done using a combination o ball work combined with dynamic stretching, sometimes it may be done without the ball but it is always dynamic.

Main Part

Once the theme or the session has been established i.e. ball handling / collapse dive the main part is used to practise the technique using an isolated

or a unctional practice to provide the players with repeated opportunities to develop the particular technique / skill. During this part the presenter will show

how to coach at the community level using demonstrations o good models or demonstrating themselves and showing examples o how to encourage and

praise the players.

Final Part

In the nal part o the session the presenter will sometimes show how it is all put together usually based

on the practise, and dealing with the players in a match like scenario eaturing their actual positions

and ormations relevant to the curriculum.

Key Factors

Starting Position:

Adoptaboldstartingpositionoffthegoallineinrelationtotheball.

When dealing with crosses the GK has to take into account deending

the space in ront o him as well as the goal behind him.

Stance:

Anopenstanceisnecessarytoseetheballandoncomingattackers

rom both near and ar post at the same time. This open stance alsoacilitates the GKs movement backwards i a ball is played over his

head. A relaxed shot-stopping stance should be adopted.

Assess:

TheGKmustalwayswaituntiltheballisstruckthenhemustquickly

assess the speed, height and fight o the ball and decide whether to

go or stay.

Communication:

Aclear,condentandearlycallofkeepersorawayisnecessary

when dealing with crosses. By doing this, the GK makes his intentions

known to his teammates. I GK calls AWAY, he must retreat and deend

the shot/header

Dealing with Crosses

Speed:

Thedecisionmakingprocessofwhethertogoorstayrequiresmental

speed. Additionally, i the decision is to go then speed o the mark is

required to get to the ball. Small steps are taken initially to meet the ball

ollowed by a long last step to jump up or the ball.

Technique:

IftheGKhasdecidedtogofortheballthenhemustrstgetinline

with the ball. The GK then jumps up or the ball with the leg nearest the

goal while the leg urthest rom the goal aids in gaining height and also

acts as protection rom likely challengers. Both arms and legs work in

unison to gain maximum height. The GK should aim to take the ball at

the highest point. The GK should ideally catch the ball with both arms

extended with eyes xed on the ball through the hands.
