Our Mission Statement
Soccer Game Sense LLC was founded in 2014 to create and provide an online training resource for the continuous never ending improvement of the game for the benefit of all who coach, teach and play the game worldwide. 

To that end Soccer Game Sense 
  • conducts on-going surveys of clubs, coaches and players, 
  • solicits on-going feedback from website visitors, 
  • searches for cutting edge research studies on the game and developments in how the game is played and taught,
  • conducts research studies, 
  • creates training animations, and 
  • films training videos.  

Research & Testing
Soccer Game Sense has reviewed hundreds of published soccer research studies to learn what aspects of the game have been and are being research. These studies suggested that:
  • additional research by Soccer Game Sense might lead to developing effective age appropriate training materials for players, and that
  • including information from research studies on the game, how it is played, how it is coached and what can be done to best improve performance would be of significant benefit to our website visitors.

Site Dedication

Picture
Soccer Game Sense is dedicated to the many coaches, trainers, teams, players, club officials, league officials and referees I have worked with since 1978. 

In the fall, 1981 I was recruited to coach competitive boys travel teams for the Annandale Boys' Club, Inc. of  Annandale, Virginia. At that time, ABC was one of the best soccer programs in the country winning three U.S. Soccer Boys National Championships in 1976, 1977 and 1982. The club's name was changed to ABGC, the Annandale Boy's and Girl's Club, Inc.

I coached Club Champions League, National Capital Soccer League and Washington Area Girls Soccer League competitive travel soccer teams for Annandale F.C. until August, 2013. I also founded the Washington Area Futsal League in 2003 to introduce Futsal in the state of Virginia.

Growth in Soccer Research Studies

Picture
Worldwide the number of technical soccer research studies grows every year. The chart above shows that the number of research studies published on just one online research database more than doubled between 2010 and 2014. This excludes most studies published worldwide and thousands of graduate thesis published every year.
