[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your son doesn’t have an overuse injury, until he does. [/quote]

And the injury started and happened before he felt the pain [/quote]

It really depends on the player, I have seen a major difference on how me and my son play soccer and I never needed a break but he does from time to time.

I played D1 and even a little very low professional soccer and I could play every day. I played cm and my game was built on technique IQ, movement off the ball and I almost never ran full speed for more than 10 meters until college. Once I tried pro and figured out I was below average athlete on the pitch it did not matter how well I positioned myself. I was still okay in the attack but I had trouble defending opposing players.

My son was blessed with speed and can outrun almost everyone but because of that has really struggled developing mental and other aspects of the game. He struggles to play 2-3 games a week and practice 6 times because he runs way too many long sprints in game.  I begged coaches to play him at cm growing up but he always wanted to be on the best club team and they wanted him to be winger. Now finally in high school as a sophomore he is playing cm and it's helping him a lot, he is struggling and I could not be happier. This is an opportunity he never really got in club and I am hoping it will help him improve. He hated the position at first but he is starting to like it.

I could not be happier with letting my son play high school because of allowing him to play a different positions, however we did sit out 1 game because of fatigue and I expect to miss at least another two. [/quote]

By far the best thing about mls next players playing high school is it allows them to [b]play cm which is something everyone must do at some point if they want to make it professionally. [/b]They need to play in tight spaces and not just on the sides[/quote]

This is a new take. Never heard this before [/quote]
