[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a point in training where the focus shifts from purely technical skill development to tactical or team oriented training. As this transition occurs, it is natural to see some slowdown in technical skill growth (foot skills). In US soccer's training plan, this transition occurs between U12 and U14. Is it possible that the focus of your team training is following this path? You may be observing a slowdown in technical skill growth but he may be growing in other, less obvious areas.[/quote] OP here. That is possible. My feeling is that the kids play a sort of grabby kind of soccer because they are all angling to make the goal at the sacrifice of good team play, but I'm not enough of an expert at tactics to really say. I felt like the lower-level teams played more as a team than this one. [/quote]
