[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Man, this thing just keeps going off the rails.

For the morons or high schoolers commenting on BRYC and VDA, please take that discussion elsewhere.

I want a serious discussion about what differentiates ECNL clubs from one another.

I still would like to understand what sets Clyde Watson and Nadir apart from other ECNL coaches. I have seen both in action in tournaments but it is not clear to me what makes them great.[/quote]

From what I can tell it is simple, they care. Most of the other “top notch” coaches are self-absorbed individuals that care more about their business, their rep, or their own win and loss record vs. actually teaching kids how to play soccer well. In addition to the caring, the also have high soccer acumen in regards to the proper mix of individual player skills and the dynamics of team play, where many other coaches only understand one or the other. Now having said that, Nadir can be an acquired taste as he can be a bit of a blunt jerk at times, but he does know what he’s talking about on the pitch. [/quote]

Not only is that well said about Watson and Nadir, but you have summarized the difference between the vast majority of coaches out there and the very few who will develop a player.  That is what leads to real development, the type we all crave for our DDs.[/quote]
