Player 1 – Danny - Fitness Results Summary Please see attached sheets for each test results. Danny’s fitness was at a good level at the start. Improvements were seen throughout the testing period. Danny’s resting heart rate dropped showing signs of a stronger heart and Vo2 max. Through the use of foot work drills and running technique he developed a smooth running style which benefited with improved test results.
Player 1 – Danny - Fitness Action Plan
After discussing results with with Danny we feel his aerobic fitness levels are good. We are going to continue with the aerobic fitness training so he can improve more but work a bit more on his anaerobic fitness in order to make him a more complete player, fitness wise.
Start distance covered – 3228 metres Finish distance covered – 4000 metres Increase of 772 metres Player 2 – Tom - Fitness Results Summary Please see attached sheets for each test results. Tom was new to SAQ training and fitness testing but he showed a willingness to learn
Player 2 – Tom - Fitness Action Plan
After discussing results with Tom we are going to
and succeed. We saw some good progress through the testing period, with only a slight dip on final week due to a cold. As a result of this we re-tested Tom the following week when he was feeling better and his r esults showed a good improvement. Start distance covered – 3430 metres Finish distance covered – 4200 metres Increase of 770 metres
continue to work on his aerobic fitness levels as we feel further improvements can be made as he is still getting tired towards the end of games. We are going to continue through the season with the fitness training and test again mid season as if he continues to develop as his results have shown over last 10 weeks we should see some greatly improved fitness levels.

Team Code of Behaviour – Parents & Spectators Candidate’s Name: Team’s name: Code of Behaviour Parents/spectators have a great influence on children’s enjoyment and success in football. All children play football because they first and foremost love the game — it’s fun. Positive encouragement will contribute to: Children Enjoying Playing Football A sense of personal achievement Self-esteem Improvement in the child’s skills and techniques
Parent’s/spectator’s expectations and attitudes have a significant bearing on a child’s attitude towards: Other players Managers Spectators
Parents/spectators within our club should be positive and encouraging towards all our children, not just their own. Parents and spectators are encouraged to: applaud the opposition as well as your own team avoid coaching the child during the game refrain from shouting and screaming respect the referee’s decision
give attention to each of the children involved in football, not just the most talented give encouragement to everyone to participate in football
Ensure that other parents/spectators within the club agree and adhere to the club’s Code of Conduct and Child Protection PolicyNOTE:- Excessive pressure to succeed, displays of unfairness or other un-sportsman like behaviour witnessed by children and perpetrated by parents or other adults may constitute an infringement of the club’s Child Protection Policy.
Personal Coaching Philosophy Candidate’s Name:
My Personal Coaching Philosophy
My coaching philosophy is to improve every individual, turning weaknesses in to strengths. To provide knowledge and understanding of the game and to provide a safe and fun environment for football to be played. To work with players both individually and as part of a team. I make sure players, parents and fellow coaches know that I can be approached regarding any issue they feel necessary to discuss and ensure I offer a safe and enjoyable environment for the players. I believe honesty is a big part of being a coach. Not to mislead players in to thinking they are better than they are, working with individuals for as long as necessary in order for them to improve, making sure that every player is playing at the correct level for their ability in order for them to enjoy the game at the level and pace they can most succeed at. As a coach I am in a powerful position to influence those around me so I need to ensure I conduct myself in the correct manner and set positive examples. To ensure negative feedback to players is followed by a solution to ensure that this negative becomes a positive (constructive criticism). In all my duties as a coach, my team and there needs both individually and as a group are my main priority. Failure to meet the requirements of my team, parents and club would result in a review of my coaching style and techniques. To make sure this failure never happens evaluations of my sessions are done on a regular basis, with player/ parent and fellow coach feedback sought after to make sure that all expectations are met if not exceeded.
I feel that as a coach you never stop learning, always look to improve through new courses, keep yourself open to new ideas and continue to learn from peers/ more experienced coaches, both internally and externally, and to listen to player feedback, as they are the ones taking part in the sessions.

Answer
why carbohydrates are important to an active footballer. Give examples of the percentage required in the diet and the foods high in carbohydrate
During bursts of intensive activity carbohydrate is the essential energy source. It is the only fuel that can be converted into energy quickly enough to meet the demands of the game. Carbohydrates are limited and it is essential that carbohydrates provide a major part of a footballer’s diet. A footballer’s diet should include 60% of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are commonly divided into two types; simple – (sugars) confectionary, cakes, preserves, soft drinks complex – (starches) rice, bread, pasta, potatoes, cereals, fruit
the two different types of fat and their key roles and sources for an active footballer. What is the ideal percentage of fat in a footballer’s diet?
The two different types of fat are: Saturated and Unsaturated . Saturated fats are mainly found in animal fats and are usually solid at room temperature. Unsaturated fats mainly come from vegetable or fish sources and are liquid or soft at room temperature. Fats are stored mainly in adipose tissues and some are stored in muscle cells. They contribute to the general health of individuals, their metabolism playing an important role in the production of energy. Sources of fats; butter, margarine, lard, oils, oily fish, pasties, cheese, whole milk, nuts, fresh food. Ideal percentage of fat = 25%
the role of protein for an active footballer, together with examples of sources and the ideal percentage in the diet
Proteins are composed of amino acids, some of which are an essential component of any diet. They are required for growth and repair of body tissues, the manufacture of hormones and enzymes and they are important in the functioning of the immune system. Good sources of protein are; milk, cheese, meat, yoghurt, poultry, fish, eggs, nuts. The percentage of protein in a footballer’s diet would be 15%.
