[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS plays for MLSN.  The coach will cancel if there is a drop of rain, okay, that is a bite of an exaggeration.   If we play on Sunday, he will cancel Monday practice and will not make it up.  We should be practicing four days a week like the rest of the MLSN team in the club, but we only have practices outside and one video session a week.   [/quote]

nice job, troll--after a Sunday match, Monday is a recovery day.[/quote]

How funny is it when a crazy says something like that out loud with such confidence?
That's why it's a steep mountain to climb for us to catch up with the rest of the soccer world.

Ok expert.  I've seen you before saying it's hilarious when non-expert says  . . . .  or when its funny when a non expert says . . . .

Are you 100% positive that a recovery day is needed when a team plays one game on a Sunday when they've had Saturday off, and likely Friday as a built in rest day before Saturday games?  It's an 80 or 90 minute game with a roster of 18 and it's likely that 5 or fewer players played the entire match.  Just asking for your expertise.  If they play on Saturday should they cancel their Sunday game, because there are lots of two-game weekends.[/quote]

If your son is on a MLS Next team, then the schedule is known well in advance barring few exceptions. 
The team recovery days are (should be) built in the periodization training/game cycle of their week.

I seriously doubt your kid's team is using data metrics to track exertion of each player over the week in order to determine individual needs of need more/need less. So them being kids, it's best to use general cautious approach.

Games being on Saturday & Sunday is not within your control, so you play them using your players judiciously. Knowing you'll never get 100% out of them on Sunday and fatigue leads to injuries and more mistakes.
The training week is within your control.

The 5 players and everyone else should use their discretion to do on their own that which is prudent on team rest days.
Active recovery can be done or a light or medium exertion workout. Or nothing.

I know you were throwing around "expert" as sarcasm and cynicism, but you're welcome anyway. [/quote]

Right.  So they can train on Monday.  And you didn't need to mock a poster and blame the state of US soccer on them.  You're welcome.[/quote]
