This document discusses the importance of player development for girls' and women's soccer in the United States. It argues that American players need to become more of a "soccer culture" by regularly watching high-level soccer live and on TV in order to learn from the best players. The author recommends that competitive youth teams see at least one professional game live per year and watch two professional games on TV as a team. Doing so will help players develop sophistication in their technical skills and tactical understanding of the game. The document is intended to support player development initiatives by the Women's National Team head coach.

Narrated Business Proposal for the Philadelphia Eaglescamrynascott12
Slide 1:
Welcome, and thank you for joining me today. We will explore a strategic proposal to enhance parking and traffic management at Lincoln Financial Field, aiming to improve the overall fan experience and operational efficiency. This comprehensive plan addresses existing challenges and leverages innovative solutions to create a smoother and more enjoyable experience for our fans.
Slide 2:
Picture this: It’s a crisp fall afternoon, driving towards Lincoln Financial Field. The atmosphere is electric—tailgaters grilling, fans in Eagles jerseys creating a sea of green and white. The air buzzes with camaraderie and anticipation. You park, join the throng, and make your way to your seat. The stadium roars as the Eagles take the field, sending chills down your spine. Each play is a thrilling dance of strategy and skill. This is what being an Eagles fan is all about—the joy, the pride, and the shared experience.
Slide 3:
But now, the day is marred by frustration. The excitement wanes as you struggle to find a parking spot. The congestion is overwhelming, and tempers flare. The delays mean you miss the pre-game excitement, the tailgate camaraderie, and even the opening kick-off. After the game, the joy of victory or the shared solace of defeat is overshadowed by the stress of navigating out of the parking lot. The gridlock, honking horns, and endless waiting drain the energy and joy from what should have been an unforgettable experience.
Our proposal aims to eliminate these frustrations, ensuring that from arrival to departure, your experience is extraordinary. Efficient parking and smooth traffic flow are key to maintaining the high spirits and excitement that make game days special.
Slide 4:
The Philadelphia Eagles are not just a premier NFL team; they are an integral part of the community, hosting games, concerts, and various events at Lincoln Financial Field. Our state-of-the-art stadium is designed to provide a world-class experience for every attendee. Whether it's the thrill of game day, the excitement of a live concert, or the camaraderie of community events, we pride ourselves on delivering a fan-first experience and maintaining operational excellence across all our activities. Our commitment to our fans and community is unwavering, and we continuously strive to enhance every aspect of their experience, ensuring they leave with unforgettable memories.
Slide 5:
Recent trends show an increasing demand for efficient event logistics. Our customer feedback has consistently highlighted frustrations with parking and traffic. Surveys indicate that a significant number of fans are dissatisfied with the current parking situation. Comparisons with other venues like Citizens Bank Park and Wells Fargo Center reveal that we lag in terms of parking efficiency and convenience. These insights underscore the urgent need for innovation to meet and exceed fan expectations.

Player Develop For Girls Part 1
1. Player Development for Girls’ and Women’s Soccer
PART I
Tony DiCicco
Commissioner, WUSA
Head Coach ’96 Olympic Gold Medallist; ’99 World Champions
In America, we have established through hard work, inspired play and
success at the highest level, an expectation of excellence on the female side of
the game. During my term as US Women’s National Team coach, our motto was
“win forever”. Some may consider such lofty goals as frivolous or unattainable. I
prefer, however, to compare it to the Brazilian men, considered, by virtually all
the experts, to be the best soccer team on the planet. The citizens of Brazil
clearly want and expect their team to win every match and every competition
and, therefore, the Brazilian male players must train to live up to those
expectations.
The expectations of American soccer fans should also be that the US
Women win every game and every competition. To satisfy those goals, female
soccer in America has to always be on its cutting edge. Constant evaluation,
innovation and individual and collective pursuit of excellence must be a daily
objection.
This series of articles is to assist with player development and our ability
to win forever. The following will look at our players as well as our soccer
culture. I will review our challenges from a technical, tactical, physical and
psychological aspect and hopefully encourage players, coaches, administrators
and parents to all share and become part of the USA Women’s Soccer win
forever vision.
This document is intended to support all the directives from April
Heinrichs, Womens National Team Head Coach and Technical Director.
Female soccer in America continues to set the standard worldwide. Our
women’s team is ranked #1 in the world. Our professional league, the Womens
United Soccer League is the best league in the world. We are attracting more
and more young girls into the game. Studies show that from age 15 and up girls
and women make up more than 50% of all players.
Much of our success can be directly linked to our youth programs, USYS,
AYSO and others and how they have instilled within young players a love for our
game as well as provided training and a structure for girls and women to play,
fail, succeed and learn and continually evolve. But, we need to do more…not
necessarily train more or play more but, specifically, become more of a soccer
culture, to add sophistication of play to the strengths already demonstrated by
our female players. How do we do that?
First, our players need to see top-level soccer. I define top-level soccer
as, for the competitive level player, watching our Women’s National Team or a
League match in the WUSA. For recreational level players, you can add in the
2. college game to the other elite choices. Coaches, parents and players need to
understand to assist with player development on a personal or team level, seeing
the highest level possible will provide a strong and meaningful supplement to a
youth player’s training and game routine.
When a young player watches a WUSA game or WNT game live, she
sees and experiences, the real speed of the game…the real version of pace,
quickness, tenacity. It is not uncommon for a team that attends a game and
really watches …is a better team the very next day in practice. Why? Players
see the crispness of the tackles and the sharpness of the passes. How top
players receive a ball out of air, how clean their first touch is and how they relieve
pressure individually with their own flair and collectively by passing out of
pressure. Countless player and team qualities can be observed and learned and
applied to their own games…all by just coming to a WUSA game.
As an Assistant coach with our U20 Men’s team in 1993, I witnessed this
first hand. We were on a trip to England preparing for the U20 World
Championship in Australia later that year. We had the top players from the
American College system and even a couple that were already professionals. In
other words, they could play. We took the team to see QPR play Manchester
United in London. The game was awesome. The speed of ball movement was
very impressive. The strength of tackles and the quality and speed of runs off
the ball was special. The players studied the game and it’s players and the next
day in training, our young men were better players and we were a better U20
National Team. Why? It was clear to me then and just as clear now that
watching top professional players in person is a wonderful player
development opportunity. In my opinion, watching an international or
professional game LIVE is a positive substitute or replacement for a team training
session or even a match or…two. Watching just one game can make a very
noticeable difference.
However, I would wager that most of our competitive level teams within a
one hour drive of a professional team or an international game do not see an
average of one per year. That same player living in Germany will see many
games live and a steady diet of games and replays on TV every week for 11
months of the year. It is no surprise that the European players, playing in the
WUSA are considered by the League’s head coaches as being more
sophisticated (soccer savvy) than the American counterpart.
To all the youth coaches…it is your responsibility to develop players and
part of your developmental scheme must be to make time to have your team see,
at least, one live game per year.
Of course, if you cannot see a game live because of travel considerations
then watch pro and international games on TV. Although not as impressionable
as a live game, watching or taping a game to watch it later provides a learning
platform for our players.
I cannot state this strongly enough…If we want to be the best, we need
to see the best regularly.
3. Who do you think was the most sophisticated player on the 1996 USA
Olympic Gold Medal team or the 1999 World Cup Championship team? The
answer is Brandi Chastain. However, this may be considered remarkable when
you realize that she was not on the USA National Team from 1991 – 1996. So,
while all the other national team players were playing internationally for 5 years,
Brandi was evolving from a soccer savvy standpoint…faster…how? Brandi is a
soccer junkie. She watches it on TV, and she goes to professional games
whenever possible. When we (Olympic Team) were preparing in Florida in 1996,
Brandi would organize a team bus or vans to go from Orlando to Tampa (75
miles) to see the Tampa Bay Mutiny (MLS) play. Brandi is special, but her drive
to see the highest level possible should be the norm. Most of our top young
soccer prospects that live within driving distance from a WUSA team need to
develop that same motivation and our coaches and parents need to help cultivate
that hunger within our players.
Simply stated….our players need to become students of the game!
I have initiated with our youth organizations, specifically, USYS and
AYSO, a program called Youth Energize the Stadiums (YES). The YES
program is an effort to connect the youth teams with WUSA teams so that,
attending a game is fun, educational and impacts player development.
The YES program addresses that most teams that do attend a game do
so as a team outing…which, of course, is fine. But, let’s also have our teams
attend a game with a player analysis mentality. It makes sense that if a young
midfielder attends a WUSA game in which the Boston Breakers and Carolina
Courage are playing that she studies Kristine Lilly or Hege Riise or both and try
to identify 3 things that Kristine or Hege did that she would want to incorporate
into her own game….or if the NY Power is competing against the San Jose
CyberRays that our young forward watching Tiffeny Milbrett or Katia and stealing
some of their attacking and scoring secrets or if the Atlanta Beat are playing for
that young goalkeeper to watch Briana Scurry and maybe get a glimpse of how
an Olympic Gold Medal and World Cup Champion goalkeeper plays.
The possibilities are endless and this makes so much sense…I’m getting
pumped up…but how many ODP coaches take their players to a game with a
match and player analysis objective?
Ok, so this is what the YES program and Tony DiCicco suggest. Every
coach, if you are coaching the recreational level, you should get your team to a
international, professional or even collegiate game. If you are coaching at a
competitive or elite level, you need more than college soccer, you need to see
the world’s best players playing regularly. Every team needs to set an intention
to see a professional game live at least once this year and also, as a team, watch
a WUSA professional game or international game at least two times on TV and
tape these games to watch on your own.
I guarantee player development and enjoyment of the game will be greatly
enhanced. Thanks and Good luck!
4. In Part II we will look at some of the technical and tactical sides of the
game that our players need to be aware of and become better at.
