[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fitness over summer is too much wear and tear especially under 13-14 years old. Kids need time off. Ball mastery for 15-20 min couple times per week and occasional pick up maybe. Outside that : vacation, swimming, family, anything else but soccer. [/quote] Around that age is when I personally started taking my off season fitness seriously without any push from my parents. I found it was a lot harder to get back in shape when practices started. I didn't want to be dying or outplayed by my teammates in those first couple weeks. I did all of the swimming, playing, etc but also focused on sprints and running. This was also during the era of coaches doing line drills and ladder runs the first couple practices and we barely touched a ball lol. [/quote]
