[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Position matters, by the sequence of the importance at U12, you know if in coach's view your son is improved or not. 1: Mid field 6/9 2: Center back 3: wings left/right, defender left/right 4: striker The keeper is not in discussion. [/quote] Stop. At u12, a kid should be playing multiple positions and rotating throughout the season. A soccer player who is position specific at 11 years old is not going to develop. You should talk to the coach and see if he/she has a plan to rotate the players. Many coaches will talk development but really want to see wins - this should not be a factor/influence until u15. If a coach consistently puts(hides) less developed kids in the wide positions, the coach’s focus is winning.[/quote]
