Nonsense.  You are the worst type of soccer parent who understands nothing of playing a physical sport.  I used to encounter parents like you all the time on the sideline of my daughters' games.  Every time their daughter fell over they would scream at the poor ref that a foul had occurred and " protect the children".  And yes - injuries do happen in contact sports - but telling a kid to hit harder - especially when she is being knocked around by a kid who is playing significantly harder than she is - is well within the bounds of acceptable.  If you want a 0% chance of an ACL injury then enroll your daughter in knitting class.  "Hit hard" is not the same as "Play dirty" or "Go for her knees" or "Injure her" - and this is especially ture when the advice ios being given to a young lady who is clearly being muscled out of the game.

There is nothing wrong with this whatsoever.[/quote]

We are talking about soccer here, not rugby or football. Soccer is about making skilled tackles and not "hitting hard". If you want your kid hitting others, I suggest you have them change sports. Usually when a player hits someone on purpose in soccer, they are given and yellow card or a red card depending how dangerous of a play the "hit" was. Does it happen? Yes. Do coaches ask their players to hit other players whether it's soft or hard? Absolutely not. Not even in High School, lol.

Now, go back to Jersey. You are not smart enough to hang out on DC Forums. [/quote]
