YDF Manual for Violence Prevention
The foundation module — the YDF Manual for Coaches — still constitutes the first introduction to the complex topic of violence prevention, whereas the short module on ‘Violence Prevention’ builds on the different forms of reaction that are possible and elaborates in detail on tips for taking action. YDF is convinced that every coach needs to build on general basic-training skills in order to implement the ‘YDF Manual for Violence Prevention’ successfully and, as such, needs to be familiar with the content of the ‘YDF Manual for Coaches’.
Key aspects of the YDF Manual for Violence Prevention include:
- providing background information on violence, understanding its causes and identifying victims and perpetrators;
- serving as a guideline for coaches with training on techniques of conflict resolution, who learn when their immediate intervention is required;
- encouraging understanding of the respective roles of the victims and perpetrators of violence and explaining various supporting mechanisms, complemented by a large number of related football exercises; and
- getting to know the potential inherent in peer education and the power of using learning processes related to group dynamics.
In line with all the other YDF manuals, this manual is also equipped with case-study boxes and with training and lesson worksheets.
