[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a question perhaps your daughter can answer....My daughter is young and showing strong potential.  She's been to a few ID sessions and the hardest part is trying to make an impact at all times even when NOT on the ball.  It's tough to show your stuff when you don't have the ball at your feet.  What advice would your daughter provide about how to make an impact in ID sessions even when off the ball and nobody is playing you?  Thanks in advance.  Your post is great and I appreciate your help.  You might want to start a College Soccer Mom page in X!!![/quote]

I asked her this question.  She said in ID sessions its all about who goes the hardest.  Max effort on every play.  If you dont have the ball are you in the the space you should be in? Are you seeing the play unfold and anticipating?  Are you standing around and watching?  Playing a team sport with 11 players on the field it can be easy to hide.  Max effort all the time is very noticeable.  Are you talking out there?  Are your celebrating good play by your teammates?  You can not make in impact at all times but you can seen by being vocal and giving max effort at all times.  Her advice, not mine! [/quote]

Love this advice.  Just watch Cavin Sullivan play, the 14 year old who signed as a Pro with the Union and will transfer to Manchester City at 18.  That kid, equivalent to a HS freshman/ sophomore, goes all out for the whole game. He plays like his life depends on it!  It is very noticeable the amount of effort he puts out there. [/quote]
