[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ransom thoughts. Lived in Europe. The difference is the curriculum. At u-6 to U-9 child’s coach worked all technical. In the US that would not be considered ‘fun.’ In Europe, Parents didn’t even show up to games at those ages because they said there were no tactics - that comes at U12 apparently. Americans care about winning to justify the expense. What I see here are great athletes but limited technical skill and no feel for what’s actually going on. In Europe the skilled players pass. Here it’s the goal scorers who get all the attention. Also most of child’s team never watched soccer...oh and did I mention it was 1/6 the cost? Only one exception in three years of travel soccer here: McLean soccer. We were in Maryland so it’s not child’s team but McLean soccer had that combination of children with technical skill and tactics. Classic Barcelona style of play. Guessing all State Department kids...[/quote] Ok REvil[/quote]
