[quote=Anonymous]I have coached and done what OP is intimating for the purposes outlined--avoid the risk of a kid turning the ball over in our own third and/or simply being a disinterested player (e.g. rec level this is really common; and even at some travel levels no matter how good a kid is or what physical tools you all might think would make them a natural fit for a certain position many times they just cannot grasp how to play in certain positions or with a certain unit--or at least cannot grasp it yet). IMO part of the coach's responsibility is to set up individuals and the team for success while developing all of the players. Some of this means "hiding" players in certain situations. If/when the teams I've had didn't have a marked drop-off from the bottom player to the middle player,s then I often would put one of the most skilled players at the striker position--without question.[/quote]
