[quote=NOVASoccerCoach][quote=Anonymous]I have a U12 who has been playing mostly striker with the occasional time in wing for his entire career. I've been concerned because I feel like he's been playing this/these so long he's lost out on valuable developmental time. I want to ask the coach to play him elsewhere but he loves playing up top and wants me to let it be. FWIW all the parents on the team think he's a "natural forward" and don't understand why I am worried. Next year at U13 will they add a second striker position to the field? I'm concerned a better striker will wander in and he will end up on the bench or cut. Thoughts?[/quote] If your kid is scoring goals then I'd let it be. When you go U13 the system of play will depend on the coach and club. Some will go 2 strikers, some will keep 1 striker. Now if your kid is really struggling as a striker then maybe it's time to evaluate in other spots. I wouldn't be too concerned if he's having fun and enjoying it. [/quote]
