[quote=Anonymous]In huge group tryouts, I don't know that the left-footedness stood out at the time. However, my left-footed daughter (only lefty on her team) gets assigned to the left almost exclusively (as fullback or winger). She does OK on the right side (though likely worse than a right-footed teammate) but on the left side, she seems much more comfortable getting down the left side and crossing into the box to the center forward/midfielder. I think her teammates and coach appreciate her comfort level on the left and she enjoys playing that side. Speed and reaction time are also important since she is usually up against fast right wingers (when she plays fullback). The one downside is that she didn't get rotated through positions as much as other teammates because her left-footedness was perceived as such an advantage on the left.[/quote]
