[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you explain to someone who knows nothing about soccer why a defender would stay in the whole game at that age/[/quote] It's about the learning process. I don't know the science behind it, but from practical experience players need to play a whole game as a unit to learn to defend as a unit at those ages. It just works better, don't know why. The midfield and attacking positions can rotate more and the lack of consistency doesn't seem to slow their growth. I've heard many other coaches that focus on U9/U10 who independently came to the same conclusion.[/quote]
