Have kids in college now so don't recall the exact amount of hours per week, needless to say it varied as they aged with more time as they got older.

I don't hear much about over training, but I'd certainly caution about over USE and mental burnout. Kids in general, need time to be kids.

[b]What I mean by over USE is repetitive training that stresses a specific muscle group or joint.[/b] Your training, whether with a team, private training, or on your own should vary in the movements made and in intensity.

If you player does other sports, such as track, cross country, swimming, etc. that require repetitive movement in addition to soccer, I would definitely pay closer attention to any muscle or join pain.[/quote]

Can you provide a scenario in the average kid's weekly soccer practices that may lead to an over use injury?  My kid's practices seem to be very varied with lots of running, jumping, change of direction, back pedaling, failing, getting up, etc. [/quote]

Your kid If they are not playing on 3 or more teams shouldn't have any over use injuries is the aren't obese or are recovering from a major injury.[/quote]
