Dear Mr. Wymer , I have read your manual, Coaching Soccer Tactics, and enjoyed it tremendously. I have never come across such a comprehensive look at the tactical side of soccer. I would recommend it to everyone. What's more the monthly magazine (the TACTICIAN) is constantly updating my understanding and knowledge of the game ... .

Phil, just a word of thanks for the soccer coaching manual, I am involved with coaching a regional rep senior team in the Northern league in NZ. I coach the reserve side so as you can imagine we have had a large number of players through our sessions this season. I started the season with basic tactical awareness, measuring our performance and, as much as possible, the oppositions. At the half way mark we had 13 points on the table (of a possible 30) and had won a couple of great cup games. The second half of the season has gone slightly better. We have 34 points with 3 games to go. Increased tactical awareness has enabled our team of largely teen players to out play larger, older and technically generally better teams. I very much appreciate your input. Many thanks.

I realised I hadn't got a clue about the tactical side of the game. I know use the ideas you introduce and can analyse any situation.

We worked hard and re-organised having read you Simple manual. We are unbeaten and the players are enjoying the game more as for the first time they know what they are supposed to do when defending and attacking.
