[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My thought is there is just less space on the field at 9v9. Those players who might have had more room to work at 7v7 have less room, just due to numbers. Coupled with kids getting bigger, faster and better skilled 9v9 can just be a bit too cluttered. Physicality comes into it too - a lot of the more physical teams can push less physical teams around on the smaller field, again due to size of the field vs number of players. Some teams also like to play Route 1 soccer 9v9 - a back boots it up the field to the strikers, and a big or fast striker beats the D and puts it in. It will open up more when it goes to 11v11.[/quote] Doesn't the field size almost double going from 7v7 to 9v9? https://grassroots.fifa.com/en/for-coach-educators/technical-elements-for-grassroots-education/laws-of-the-game-for-small-sided-formats/dimensions-of-the-pitch.html[/quote]
