[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't teach raw speed, but you can teach the Maradona. And a kid who shows up at U-9 tryouts knowing a bunch of moves doesn't prove that they love soccer - it usually only proves that their parent(s) loves soccer. The best way to make ASA travel is to be involved in the organization - coach a rec team, volunteer for a board, play in an adult soccer league, chat up the coaches. Sometimes it's not what you know, it's who you know.[/quote]

Got that wrong there, buddy.  Our kids have been playing pick up soccer on a patch of turf with kids that barely speak English and they love it and beg me to drive them there every night only practice gets in the way. They not only picked up those moves, they made up a few of their own.  2 of the best players on our rec team live in the apartments behind that field and are out there every night.

That's how you learn soccer.  Don't assume they were trained that way.  We took ours for more training [b]after[/b] they learned that in their own and were eager for more.
