[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi coach you still here? Do you worry about K/U6 kids bunching up in games? Google results appear to be an even split for this age group. Wondering what other coaches do in this area.[/quote] Not the original coach here but someone who has done a lot of coaching and research in the early ages ... I would say "worry, but don't obsess." It's difficult to get kids to pass at U6 (some would even say U9, which I think is bogus). But you can still try to impress upon them that good things can happen when they're not all bunched together, and I don't think it does anyone any good to just write it off as something that can't be taught. You have to try creative drills, though. You're not going to get anywhere by yelling "Spread out!" 100 times per game.[/quote]
