[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't invest in private training unless he's committed to improving his play, not just "scoring a goal". It might also be helpful to talk to him about the entire concept of teamwork and playing a position. By U9 kids are beginning to gravitate to offense, mid, or defense. If he's not aggressive, he's probably not a natural forward, and could serve his team better in another spot. My DS, now in high school, is a natural defender. He has scored a handful of goals in his entire life. He became good at soccer by concentrating on tactics, footwork, and reading the field.[/quote]
