[quote=Anonymous]This recent article by Albert Puig (former director of La Masia) is instructive. He describes ages 12-16 as the cognitive stage, and says the role of the coach in teaching the game is extremely important. https://www.soccertoday.com/pros-and-cons-between-youth-soccer-in-the-usa-and-europe/ In my opinion there is always room to improve technically, and skills can also erode if not kept sharp, but that is what individual practice is for. A player who doesn't put time in on his or her own is never going to really "develop" no matter how good their coach is. [/quote]
