The document outlines the S.M.A.R.T. coaching approach which involves setting goals that are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound. Specific goals indicate particular areas for a team to develop like scoring chances or defending. Measurable goals have milestones that can track progress. Attainable goals take into account a team's capabilities. Realistic goals are possible to achieve and avoid creating failure. Time-bound goals have clear timeframes to stay focused and meet deadlines.

1. S. M. A. R. T. Coaching Approach
S – Specific – Instead of simply saying ‘weneed to improve’, coach must indicate
particular areas that the team needs to develop: like creating chances, through balls,
finishing, defending crosses or defending our own penalty area. In this way, players will
know specifically what they need to accomplish.
M – Measurable – Goals with milestones that team can properly gaugemake them
easier to achieve. When coach addresses the need of scoring more goals, it must be
specified in the way it can be achieved. And then TRACKdown how is it achieved.
A – Attainable – This is wherewe take into account team’s capabilities and
manpower, as well OTHER TEAM’S capabilities. Additionally club must think of the
structureof attracting, developing and selling on young talent.
R – Realistic – Team’s objectives must be doable. Setting impossible goals will create a
feeling of failure that will demotivate players as opposed to driving them on.
Demanding to win every single match is unrealistic.
T – Time Bound – Goals, in order to be complete and relevant, must always be
accompanied with a timeframe. If the coach sets goals indefinitely, the tendency to
slack off is much greater. A well-defined timeframe is the ultimate key to EFFICIENCY.
Creating both long-term and short-termgoals makes everyonestay focused and active
on immediate tasks with immediate deadlines.
