[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t say it’s something that we don’t do, but they are much better on the tactical side.[/quote] We seem to believe that shape and movement can not be taught before 13 and that nearly everything up until then should mostly technical. We stand in lines at early ages dribbling through cones and they are getting more touches in and learning soccer space and movements doing rondos are the same age. Once the European Womens side hits critical mass we will be forever behind. [/quote] +1000 on the not learning shape and movement. Little kids learn it in basketball, so I think they can learn it at a young age in soccer. [/quote] Passing and trapping a ball with a clean first touch with proper body shape are also technical skills. We don’t focus on that nearly enough. Shooting is also technical. [/quote]
