[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids around the world who love soccer play soccer every day. There is no such thing as too much soccer. There is such thing as too much pressure and unrealistic expectations. That’s what burns kids out.

If 60 games a year is too much for your 11-year-old, then have her play less, there’re several levels below for those who aren’t that into it. There’s a lid for e dry pot.[/quote]

I think playing in small formats or short sided pickup games for fun is much much different. But I hear you.  I'm sure these 60 games/ tournies come with a suite of practices as well plus the 45 minute pre game warm ups , it all adds up. There is a story about the world cup and pro soccer players are being over used. The complaint alleges that with summer games pros are now playing over 60 games a year and they aren't getting the adequate rest to start next season. But, you think its ok for 14 year old girls to play 60 games- considering the acl issues affecting girls?[/quote]
