[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's still the en vogue thing -- do nothing but footskills, then toss the kids into games and don't worry about the fact that they don't understand it at all. I'm told it pays off in the long run. I think it's just because everyone else quits playing soccer, so the kids who were in Division 7 move up to Division 2 and the parents consider it "progress." But maybe someone will find the right balance somewhere.[/quote] My friend’s kid is in FCBE, and he said it’s footskills but also teaching them how to read different game situations. So I don’t think it’s footskills and nothing else, and I would expect the kids to get better at “winning” as they develop the game IQ more. You could argue this stifles creativity, or you could argue this helps them develop more of an instinct of what to do in game situations, which makes way for creativity. Will definitely be interesting to see how the young teams pan out once they compete and get older. [/quote]
