Quality of play should be an add on and not replace results in my opinion.

Ball size 4 for u13 is good

Whats the value of scoreboard results in your opinion?

Isn't scoring more than the opponent the objective of the team?

Not in youth development. The US's culture upon winning the scoreboard is hurting our long-term prospects of developing talent. SYC routinely wins during the Puberty Wars in early MLS Next play but then gets played around in the late teenage years because the kids were not focused on ball mastery during those important years between 10-14 and don't know how to fundamentally play at a high level with the ball.

Isn't it a matter of priority? It is not all or nothing.

Over a period of time say 1 year:
Team wins and play well = GOOD
Team loses and play well = GOOD
Team wins and play bad = NOT GOOD
Team loses and play bad = NOT GOOD

Your comment about SYC is a thing of the past the upcoming u littles at SYC kids are athletic and have skills.

SYC kids always have skills but what’s the point if they’re not being challenged to use those skills under pressure? What are huge talented kids doing playing against a team that they tower over and can outrun in a few strides? It’s really sad to watch sometimes.

Their u little are constantly playing against tough opponents and playing up all the time.

Not the U13 and above kids. Those kids should be playing up.

not true, red beat syc 2013 second team 3x2. That division was won by SYC top team. Red 2012 and SYC 2013 top team never faced each other.
