Who the hell slides tackle a teammate in practice at age 10? Total bush league. Sounds like kid wasn't taught how to play proper defense - move your friggin' feet.

I'd tell my DS to curb stomp the kid with his cleat if they kept pulling that crap. [/quote]

It's usually the overweight, out of shape kids that slide tackle or pull the red card moves. They can't keep up and skills usually aren't on par so they have no other recourse but to foul. [/quote]

fatties like to foul.[/quote]

My U15 son's team played a team that had one fat girl on the team.  She couldn't keep up so she would go in and dirty slide tackle the boys, foul atrociously---because she was a girl the boys weren't giving it to her back.

I told my son f*ck that.  If she is going to be on the field, she is fair game.  When I played with the boys, I expected to be treated the same.  If I was going to be a fouling douche, I deserved to be fouled back.  The problem is parents and teams won't do this.  EQUALITY.[/quote]

This is why girls should not play with or against boys after U12 in anything other than scrimmaging or co-ed rec soccer.  The boys are in a no-win situation.  They are all taught not to hit a girl and then the girls come in hard on them.  The boys (at least most of them) won't retaliate or be as physical back to the girls though.  It makes for a dangerous situation and the game play is diminished.  I'm not saying girls aren't as fast or skilled or anything like that.  It's just a dynamic that doesn't work in anyone's favor.[/quote]
