[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From our experience at the fall session, the level of player there is very low.  We did it to get my son in front of DCU coaches, but if you want intense training with good players...this is not the place for you.  Won't do it again.[/quote]

You looking for martial arts? 
What's intensity in training for U-littles?[/quote]

Some parents have the idea that the kids have to play only with players from top teams and with a lot of cardio in the session. It is such a narrow vision. Soccer can be improved while playing with or against players better or worse than your kid. Also with different age groups.[/quote]

Woof...let me guess....rec ball?

So I agree that my child can get better playing pickup in the street with kids from the neighborhood.  You CAN get better just playing anywhere.  But I paid for this in dollars and time.  There is plenty of data on the best way to develop players...it certainly isn't by playing with lower-level kids.  If you want to keep paying for that, then do it!  Enjoy.  If you are beating kids regularly, there is no point at all.

Also, intense does not equal cardio.  No one brought up cardio.[/quote]

Being the bad player on the good team doesn't guarantee improvement [/quote]
