[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid can't juggle LOL but made huge club 2nd team - out of more than 5.  For real.  They have lots of speed and pretty [b]good tech ability,[/b] aggressive.  [b]But no can do on the juggle[/b] :)  I say DC has to be the only kid on a high team who can't juggle. I've always wondered exactly how important it is to juggle?  That doesn't mean kid can't handle the ball pretty in real time like a throw ins, just that kid doesn't like to juggle as a technical exercise.[/quote]

oxymoron

Juggling shows balance, touch, control, patience and the discipline to put in work (that's what it tells real coaches)
Impossible that a kid can have touch and control under pressure in game but can't juggle a ball unopposed. Impossible

Here's something you never see at a high level academy. A kid who can't juggle
Here's something you never see on a professional or semi-pro team. A player who can't juggle

Do you have to be able to juggle to a thousand? No
Do you have to be able to control a ball using different parts of your body to be above a recreational level player (regardless of what you call yourself). Yes[/quote]

You don't have to have juggle to have great first touch.  [/quote]

LOL. This means that this player can only control passes that are rolling on the ground. [/quote]
