[quote=Anonymous]For ages 8, 9 and 10, I think the fields are too large and too few kids get touches on the ball. Small-sided games (5v5) on smaller fields would, IMO, lead to better skill development and would facilitate more touches on the ball. And those touches would be more evenly distributed across all players. Under the existing format, a few tall, long-legged players tend to dominate, but this domination is mainly because of their size (they can't outrun the smaller kids) as opposed to their soccer skills. This is an inefficient and wasteful approach to teaching the game. [/quote]
