Iranian soccer coach to write memories
7 July 2013
Former coach of Iran national under-23 football team has said he is planning to write his memoir in English.
IBNA: Speaking with IBNA, Houman Afazeli, former soccer player and a current coach, said he is writing his memoir of coaching Iran’s U-23 team in English.
He said the book will be an educational book for soccer lovers and coaches.
He asserted that one of the best ways for coaches to upgrade their expertise in football is having access to and reading through translations of articles about football.
“Unfortunately, translated works in Iran are often written by foreign coaches and experts and it rarely happens that someone in Iran authors a book on coaching football,†he added. “It is true that most of the coaching books are written by retired and outdated coaches, which has become an epidemic in the world.â€
Former coach of Iran’s Olympic team went on to add that in other sports like basketball, coaches tend to publish their experiences after each season, which is not the case in soccer.

Whenever we engage in a task, we naturally seek ways to evaluate our performance — to correct shortcomings and enhance strengths. Such refinement is only possible through the feedback we receive from others. Consider, for instance, a basketball player whose shots are consistently accurate; should he begin shooting blindfolded, his success rate would rapidly decline, as he would be deprived of essential feedback from each attempt.
