Phillips: Selection of local coaches is no guessing game.

Phillips: Selection of local coaches is no guessing game.
By: Shaun Fuentes (TTFF).


Technical Director of the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation Lincoln Phillips has stated that the preparation of local coaches and the selections for national and international duty is not a guessing game.
Phillips was drawing the conclusion as he summed up the recently conducted “C” license coaching course conducted in collaboration with the Dutch KNVB.
For eleven days between July 5-16 , twenty-five local coaches selected from among the 108 coaches from the previous Dutch Academy symposiums, completed the TTFF’s Coaching license course Category C.
This C license Course was the final coaching development initiative in conjunction with the Dutch KNVB. The Lead Instructor of the course was veteran KNVB Staff member, Nico Labohm. Assisting Nico were fellow KNVB instructors, Harry Sinkgraven and Kenneth Jaliens.
Several T&T instructors added some local flavor to the course by presenting the following topics: Lincoln Phillips, Technical Director- The Art of Goalkeeping (Ball Handling); Keith Look Loy, Technical Director, Joe Public- Team Management
Dr. Terrance Babwah, National Team Doctor- Care & Prevention of Injuries and Oswald Downer, T&T Referee Assessor- Laws of the Game.
“We are now moving into a period where national coaches will be selected according to their performances and not by guess. A change which is welcomed the TTFF and its special adviser Jack Warner.This will open up the way for young coaches who never had the opportunity to move on to the national scene due to a myriad of reasons,” Phillips told TTFF Media.
From the previous symposium, Reynold Carrington and Jefferson George topped the course and went off to Holland to undergo a further course which included a presentation by former T&T head coach Leo Beenhakker. Carrington was also recently made head coach of the T&T Under 15 team and George recommended as goalkeeper coach of the T&T Olympic team.

The course curriculum for the “C” license  focused mainly on three specific areas of Coaching development:

1. Game analysis - Candidates were exposed to several games featuring teams from the Pro, Super and Reserve Leagues. Each candidate had to make an oral presentation regarding the formation of the teams as well as answer questions regarding to their observations of issues that came up during the games.

2. Identification of football problems - Candidates were asked to identify deficiencies (in attack, Defense and Transition) and design appropriate training sessions on the field the following day.

3. Practical Coaching - The candidates, after observing Model Training Sessions by the KNVB instructors, were given 2 to 4 opportunities to present topics for their evaluation. The top candidates presented twice while the others who struggled a bit presented 3-4 times.

Phillips also gave an account of the Dutch Method being implemented in the development of local coaching.
The Dutch coaching method as observed by the coaches differed markedly from that which we are accustomed to: technical training for most of a training session and a game towards the end of the session. This coaching philosophy is also mainly used in English football. They (the Dutch method) focused mainly on teaching through game situations throughout their sessions. All aspects of the game were presented through small group (2v2; 4v2; 4v4; 5v3) and large group games (7v7; 8v8; and 11v11).
The Dutch believe that technical and tactical training should not be practiced separately. They believe that young players develop a keener insight (understanding and vision) to the game when they are exposed to more game situations during practice sessions.

The Dutch coaching methods during the course focused mainly on appropriate and spontaneous reactions to the three main moments of the game:

1. Attack - Width and depth was always stressed during training sessions. Small sided were always used to stress the following: Possession....good 1st touch, proper angle of reception; Changing the point of attack; Speed of play/counter-attack and Finishing.

2. Defense -  Individual, Group and team defense was stressed in small sided games. It was also stressed that proper defending  increased the percentage of time a team will be in possession of the ball during a game, thereby, controlling the course of the game.

3. Transition - Spontaneous reactions regarding roles when the ball changes from attack to defense and vice-versa.

Phillips explained what the local coaches would have gathered during the course.
“The coaches attending this C license course were exposed to the Dutch method of training players. This means that 25 of our top coaches at all level of participation will be exposing their players to modern method of coaching....the Dutch way.

There was a grading system in the course. The candidates were evaluated in three areas:

Practical Teaching - Each candidate had to present a topic on the field. He/she was observed in the following areas:

Knowledge of content - Must understand the game and how it is played.

Recognizing moments - Knowing when a mistake is made and having the ability to offer appropriate information to correct the deficiency; Creating a positive learning environment - motivating players, improving confidence, proper use of voice. Demonstrating and explaining tasks clearly and briefly; Proper use of space- is the field of play too small or too large for the particular exercise.
 
Coaches selected for the course were chosen from the respected areas and associations by their representatives: The Pro league, The Super league, The Zonal Associations, The Secondary School Leagues, The Primary school, The Football Academies.
The 25 coaches for the C license were chosen by the Members of the Technical Department and the KNVB coaches based on their involvement in the symposiums. Since all the coaches chosen for the symposiums and the “C” license course are currently coaching, The TTFF will depend on their respective association to assist in monitoring their progress.

Lincoln Phillips is a real thinker working for the wrong federation in the current one that exist.

He also poses the quality to take over the TTFF and replace the dictator Mr Jack Warner. (jack_warner@olivercamps.co.tt).... boy I wish that would happen...

Good going Lincoln and best of luck.

I didn't see Reynold Carrington's name on the list. And I swear Jerron Nixon name was there last week too.

Is that Ramdoo related to Kenny Ramdoo who played for Fatima, Essex and Malvern? Kenny was a deceptively quick player. I played against him when he was at Fatima. He was fast. We then played together in Essex with Lenny Alfonso. Then they went to Malvern. They were real cool.

If is a Ramdoo from Fatima, probably! Either a brother or a cousin or a nephew or something so.

Injunchile,
                 It seems that all them teams in POS suffered from the same disease. They all fell apart. The new generation never had the passion as before. The traditions were not passed on. Harvard, Malvern and Maple, QP, Paragon are still there. They are real amateurs now. They barely hanging in there. Colts, Falcons, Rovers, Sporting Club, Midvale, Essex(my team), Providence, Dynamos, Luton Town gone thru. Don't blame Kenny and Lenny.They still had to go and make a 9 to 5 living.

Sean Ramdoo was a nice player, lefty ah believe -especially that year Fatima throw way the big 7 losing to cic the last game.
But i recall Lara was a year behind Ramdoo. Lara was the same year as Keith Farhina and young Netto.  Long time ago so might be wrong
