[quote=Soccermind]My child 7 years old (nearly 8) just joined a U9 travel team in the NOVA area. I was very open minded how a club would train kids at this age. Still very young or inexperienced in play in many regards. Its been nearly 2 months of practice, 3 days week. Every practice, 95% of the time, comprises of smalled sided games 3v3 or 4v4. Thats it. Then I started looking at other age groups/ both genders training (through U11) with this club and they all are also doing the same thing. How can this be, is this normal? I understand the importance of small sided games. Just not all the time i think. I would think there be some combination 1v1, 2v1, 3v1, passing drills, dribbling drills/ moves, learning formations, defense, situational etc. I understand footskills can be done at home, Can someone explain to me the logic of this training methodology and their thoughts? What are other clubs doing during training at this age? [/quote]
