It's a soccer position, just like a false 9. It's an 8 that acts like a 10.

Thanks!

Great observation. About 80% of players are age 10 and under. The other 20% are about ages 13-11. A lot of these training groups capitalize on the FOMO of young soccer player parents. They obviously help to develop skill levels. A lot of top players do what ever they can to get better. But after they have made it onto 1st teams, most of them stop going to sessions like False8 and attend other trainings.

I think they are talking about pre mls next.

False8 is all about FOMO. All of the training groups are but false8 really works that angle. Their social media is relentless.

The social media posting seems to have taken a break but popped up again today. Either that or the algorithm wasn't pushing them my way.

If I'm paying for training, I want the instructors focused on my kid, not making content.

The instructors no longer make the content. Recently, they have someone else walking around with a camera.

Like others in the past, these programs outside of clubs fade after a few years as interest lessens. They are very popular at first but hard to sustain as customers find newer more popular options. They are trying to keep momentum with social media activity but we'll see how that plays out. Never been to it but one that seems to have quietly continued to survive is HP Elite.

They have a staff of 7 coaches . Content team. Covering it all. I’ve been at False 8 and no instructor is filming.

They should put their names and bios on their website.

It’s to make the parents feel good that they are 1 upping other parents when they talk about all the extra money they spend. And also so they can talk just loud enough that they think their kids coach are hearing this and are super impressed, all while knowing deep down nobody really cares about what some other kid is doing.

False 8 now has CJ involved. Any legitimacy is out the window.
