[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most defenders in the upper age groups and even college were not defenders until late in their soccer career. Many coaches wait to place kids in a position. Defenders are the best athletes on the field and need, speed, range, and power, height and size is also a bonus. They need to be able to do everything. [/quote] +1. I agree with this. I played DI and made the U19 team as a defender, but when i was younger I played all over the field (never in goal though, lol). Work on every aspect of the game. I guess individual training has a place, but what will help your son be better is to play a lot of pickup and even just play on his own. My two cents added to the good advice from PP.[/quote]
