[quote=Anonymous]U13 and under it’s a waste to concentrate on physical fitness. You get the kids for so little amount of time why waste it on running laps. You need to maximize touches and build skilled so the kids can play at the next age group. Kids should get in shape by playing soccer not running laps. It is ridiculous watching a team that needs skill training run laps, practice body checking, etc while the soccer ball sits off to the side unused. You do not develop your vision by doing fitness. In games the kids look like they have never played with ball before. They whiff on easy balls, have no first touch, inaccurate passing, can not see the field, etc. They look good running around without the ball but totally unproductive with the ball. The fitness coach in travel soccer has nothing else. It easy to sell fitness to clueless parents.[/quote]
