the Rise of Dogmatic football Coach: How a story about restaurant can shine light on your coaching

If I tell you "don't be dogmatic in your football coaching," you nod and forget it within a week. You've read that book before. So I wrote a story instead. Kevin opens a Scottish restaurant. He's trained under the best. He knows good food. His customers don't come back. What follows is a brutal mirror for any youth coach. You'll watch Kevin copy competitors, dismiss feedback, chase metrics, quote research, and perform for cameras. You'll recognise yourself in ways that sting. The restaurant is fiction. The football coaching lessons are real. By the end, you won't need another coaching manual telling you what to change. You'll already know. For grassroots and academy coaches who've felt the pull of Instagram sessions, parent pressure, and result obsession, this book shows you the traps without lecturing you out of them. A football (soccer) coaching book that works because it doesn't feel like one.
