[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid's coach is focused on 'passing' at 7-10 years old, then they're not working on 'development'. They're playing Hot Potato. Change coaches if you can. The W or L alone doesn't tell a story at those ages. Are the kid's individual technical skills actually developing?[/quote] I disagree. I see a strong correlation starting as young as U10 with teams that possess the ball using passing having far better ball control, shooting and other skills than those that play kickball or just try to dribble their way to the goal. In other words, passing is development.[/quote] U10's in Europe, Brazil aren't working on 'shooting' till U15's or older They focus on multifaceted Finishing. Not banging away from 20 yards out. Shooting for your players in training is one of the highest contributors to groin issues. [/quote]
