[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So he wants to suck? No offense but sounds fishy to me—how many parents have kids who don’t want to be one of the better players on their team?[/quote] If you're the best player on the field, you're on the wrong field. Same thing with smarts in the classroom. Hard to fly like an eagle when you're surrounded by turkeys. Not everybody wants to be a frontrunner, believe it or not.[/quote] Our kids tended to rise with the level around them. Players can actually look worse when playing for a team below their level. The teammates don't have the tactical awareness (don't anticipate passes or make the correct runs or cover/know how to shift), bad first touch and the overall play is slower. I have been amazed when I watch my kid in games with current team and training scrimmages with team at a higher level. He dominates at the higher level....and he looks so much faster. There sometimes is a fallacy about good players and not creating challenge for them. [/quote]
