[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wingback can be the one of the most exciting positions to play, as you can pick your space to attack based on what the players in front of you are opening up for you and you can arrive into the box unannounced as the forwards and mids will attract most of the attention. On my team some of our most talented players play 2 and 3 as it allows them space and 1v1 matchups to use their creativity in addition to attacking overloads. Our center backs often help bring the ball out the back and step into the midfield, and they go up on corners as well.  Then on top of that there’s the rush of playing defense and denying an opponent, making a tackle, winning a 50/50, your player might actually like it and have an aptitude for it![/quote]

I notice they take the brunt of the blame too.

Kids can repeatedly lose it at forward/midfield—but when the back is taking on a forward/often more than one and they get by all the parents of firwarsmda whose kids just lost the ball btw, groan and blame the back.[/quote]

This is actually why our Club puts some of the weaker kids in outside midfield---buffered by a strong wingback and good forward.[/quote]
