[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=My daughter's club with 3 girls on YNT] Wow!  At 7! Can't wait to see her on the WNT...  My daughter's club has 3 girls on YNT--they all have great footskills...  and they can also juggle.  LOL[/quote]

those YNTs that didn't make it past the recent WC group stages?

Juggling is great! Past a certain number (or time) is not adding value. Multiple surface touches is just a part of becoming a better player. [/quote]

Yes, 2 were on the U17 WC team...  but, by all means, hate on the kids for a bad tournament.  I'm sure your child is better than all on that roster.  SMH[/quote]

What a mean spirited comment that poster made[/quote]

Not my 7 y.o. PP but this is too good. Even if those girls are such prolific jugglers, that skill set was not very helpful. Maybe we do meed that 7yo for the future teams. [/quote]

Your kid can't juggle and because she can't juggle you don't think it is very important. We get it. Nobody said that juggling makes a great player. But seriously, how good could your kids touch really be if she can't even juggle? Juggling demonstrates one simple fact, that a kid has the ball at their feet A LOT. There isn't another activity that requires less material, space or support to do that can develop comfort with the ball more than juggling.

If your kid is not even motivated to juggle, no matter what lack of benefits you believe can come from doing so, it tells me a couple of things:

1. Your kid gives up when things are hard.
2. Your kid does not work enough away from organized activities.
3. Your kid lacks a true relationship and kinesiology with the ball.

Juggling is very useful but don’t be a weirdo. It doesn’t tell you anything about anybody’s kid. [/quote]
