This book introduces an innovative, authentic curricular model to systematically coach or teach soccer to develop students' and athletes' game competence. This curricular model, called Situated Game Teaching through Set Plays (SGTSP), manifests the situational and relational aspects of soccer games, where changes in the relationships among players, tasks, and environmental constraints affect their game performance. This book provides detailed descriptions of the SGTSP model, its main features and pedagogical steps, how it differentiates from previous game-centered approaches, and research evidence to support its effectiveness. It also provides practical examples on applying the SGTSP curriculum model to coach or teach soccer. This book is evidence-based, comprehensive, and systematic, and provides useful resources for university instructors, physical education teachers, and coaches at varied levels to successfully coach or teach soccer, thus improving students and players' technical ability, tactical knowledge, and game performance.
