The founders of US Youth Soccer's National Youth Coaching License took a child centered approach to educating soccer coaches in the 1990's. This large-scale coaching education program aimed to unlock the "Game in the Child" (Quinn, 1988) by embracing theory to practice and deliberate practice through developmentally appropriate activities.
