Description

"The wise man learns from experiences while the wiser man learns from the experiences of others."

-Ancient Chinese proverb


This book is about coaching and the game's demands by a true soccer hero named Mike Balson. Mike was born to be a hero from the day he first wore England's colors as a schoolboy internationalist. He has played in over 500 professional games with and against the finest of soccer players. After more than eight years as a professional player in England with Exeter City and a stint in South Africa, Mike immigrated to Atlanta, Georgia. He was signed by the Atlanta Chiefs of the NASL and later as a player-coach with other professional clubs.

Such was Mike's versatility in soccer that he turned to refereeing following his playing career, and finally his leadership qualities led to his prestigious appointment as assistant commissioner of the USISL.

Mike does not consider himself a hero. He is too modest for that. However, if we put all his contributions together, surrounded by what he has done for soccer development in the USA it is easy to understand the reason he was inducted into the Georgia Soccer Hall of Fame.

So like the wiser man said about learning from the experiences of others - 'who better than Mike Balson.

-Angus McAlpine
