[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The problem is they don't have players that can play midfield so the coach has to play my kid there. If you can't get the ball up the field how do you expect the team to score? [b]Weaker players are playing the wing and forward positions[/b]. Basically, the coach is making do with what he has.[/quote] This is very common in youth soccer. The older they get, the harder it is for the stud forward to make an impact if he/she cannot be supplied the ball. The field is simply too big now. If that forward has ball skills, then they will drop them to a deeper position (midfield), so they can affect the game. [/quote] +1 this is a coach's strategy for "where to place weaker players". Winger is the spot. [/quote]
