[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]My kid is U10, born October 2009, so he is still 8. That is not unusual[/b]. Practices 3 times a week - 1 academy day and 2 team practices, plus game on weekend. That seems pretty standard. I let him miss academy days if he is burned out - esp because that is on Mondays so sometimes he is tired. I try to listen to what he wants to do. It is an intense 10 months schedule. IMO kids can miss if they need a break. I want him to still like the sport in 5 years. He is a kid that will burn out if I don't limit the formal training. He plays constantly on his own in our basement - ball always at his feet. So I'm not concerned.[/quote] Yes, normal to be 8 at U10 but OP said their kid [i]kust turned[/i] 8. Anyone who turned 8 after Jan 1, 2018 would be born in 2010, so should be playing U9 now. IMO way too young to be worried about an extra day of GK training. [/quote]
