[quote=Anonymous][quote]2)I have taken my son to tryouts in this area and several times, when a coach has seen something he likes about my kid, he will temporarily remove him from the field in order for him to do a 100 meter race against the starting player in the current team to determine who is faster. I have never seen a situation like this in Argentina or Brazil.[/quote] I’m American and have never seen this at a club tryout. I can picture that at a high school tryout, and I’ve seen groups of kids made to sprint at tryouts generally, but never one pulled out for that purpose and pitted against individual players. As a tool for evaluation of youth soccer players, that is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard. On the juggling as skill thing, I thought that was in many places not just the U.S.[/quote]
