[quote=Anonymous]Your role as a parent is to foster their love for the game. Even if it means putting them into a different environment and even down a level. My impression is the kid needs to suck it up though and “embrace the position”. He still gets to play a lot of minutes and evidently is looked upon by the coach as a key player to put him in that role. And the coach is developing him even if indirectly by making him play and become good at another position. Versatility will help your son. Playing one position since U8 is unheard of and a black mark on the prior coaches. At this rate this kid will never play college if he gets like this playing in a different position. Maybe he is a team player and tries his best when playing even not in preferred position, but he will be out of the competitive side within 4 years. [/quote]
