Football Theory – Introduction Course 2

Designed for coaches and football practitioners at all levels, this introductory course explores core principles of football theory across six lectures. Topics include the absence of a universal football language, non-verbal communication between teammates, the distinction between tactics and game insight, decision-making as central to the sport, the relationship between technique and executing decisions, and football fitness understood within a football-specific context rather than a purely physiological one.

Delivered entirely online by Football Coach Evolution founder Raymond Verheijen, the course spans two weeks and comprises six lessons alongside a 60-minute, 15-question quiz. Students who complete the programme earn a certificate of completion. With around 200 students enrolled, it offers an accessible entry point into the football theory framework developed by Verheijen, a recurring instructor across the Football Coach Evolution catalogue.
