[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC has played with Alexandria for 3 years now. The possession style is preached club-wide, boy & girls, for all age groups. The critique above that individual skills are not taught is not entirely accurate. At U-10/11 (when DC started there), there was an emphasis on players receiving the ball across their bodies during rondos. This later progresses to getting theirs head up to see the next pass or the open space as they receive the ball. These are fundamental skills particularly when you play a possession style. There is not much training on individual dribbling, juggling, finishing, and defending techniques. Players are expected to work on those skills on their own which some do and many don't.[/quote] Not an Alexandria parent, but we have a boy and a girl who have played Alexandria teams and we actually noticed that each team, different gender and different age, played a very similar style. My husband says, "It is almost as if they have a club-wide style of play" which all clubs say they have, but few do.[/quote]
