[quote=Anonymous]This story is a tale as old as time, and hyper common. I can’t count the number of players I know like this. I have an ECNL defender, and a uLittle forward. The defender used to play on lower teams than many players like this, then gradually moved up, and passed them. They would score a ton of goals, look great on offense, but then my daughter would bail them out when they turned the ball over. Once my daughter got to ECNL, she was shocked. She was like “Dad, all the forwards and midfielders immediately track back and help on D. It’s incredible!” My uLittle’s D is nothing to write home about, but he does the work, at least. The pp is right that it does limit the other players’ offensive skills somewhat, but their defensive skills will develop extra quickly. We never stayed on teams with these players for long. Either we got moved up, they got moved down, or they grew out of it. [/quote]
