[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While this does occur in all youth sports, I think it's especially bad with soccer because so many parents do not understand the game the way they do sports like baseball and basketball. They get excited when something "big" happens like when someone just boots it down the field. Or when anyone gets knocked to the ground "hey!" it must be a foul. They have no idea that just booting it to the other team is bad, and contact is part of soccer not everything is a foul. Imagine how silly you'd look watching baseball and cheering for a big popup to the infield that everyone knows will be an out. Or yelling shoot it in basketball every time a kid touches the ball at half court.[/quote] Yes on baseball but they do in basketball -- like every game.[/quote]
