[quote=Anonymous][quote]My son is on a U12 team and mostly played one position, which he liked, last season. The team did not have a successful season for multiple reasons, but I honestly think my son did a good job the position. He worked really hard (working out outside of practice, going running). So far, this season, the coach has played him in a different position, which he does not enjoy. I'm not sure what happened, but my son is pretty frustrated. He wants to ask the coach why he isn't in his former position. I think that a better question would be to ask why the coach isn't rotating people some within each season so that they can develop. My wife thinks we should not ask or say anything.

Looking for thoughts on the best way to approach.

I have always told my son to be your own advocate. He has played every position on the field since U9 and in U14 now plays CDM always. Sometimes, if we really need a goal they will move him up to the 9 or 10 spot, because he has ball skills and big foot, but he isn't a slicer and dicer. He's very direct and a good passer and that's OK. [/quote]

How is this information about your son supposed to be helpful to the OP?  [/quote]
