[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi we are new to travel, is it good for a girl at this age to play defense for most of her game time and practice scrimmage time? She used to play attack or middle field a lot before joining the current competitive travel team (overall she has great speed, agility and good technical skills, but not super consistent about decision making under pressure) . Thank you for your insights. [/quote] No it is the worst possible thing you can do. Kids need to rotate through all the positions to develop. Good clubs will rotate the kid through the position by substitution. As an example when subbing players in the back line moves to midfield, midfield moves to forward and forward comes out. This usually includes goalkeeping. CB at this age are usually big and physical and with little demand for technical skill. It will really limit her is a few years.[/quote]
