[quote=Anonymous]Scholarship or not, parents have to be honest if their kids are impactful to the team or not. Maybe your kid is impactful on the white team but he would just be an average player on the top team. I mean he’s only 9yrs. If he won’t have impact on higher team then it wouldn’t make sense to move him up and play half the time he’s playing with his 2nd team. Parents - it doesn’t matter how many goals you kids scored at such young age really. I’ve seen strikers moved to defender when they hit U14/ U15 or older. The mindset is playing defense feels like a demoted position to most parents. One of our defenders is probably the best player on the field and impactful to the team in both defense and offense. Foster the love of the game. Lots of kids attitude came from the parents maybe not directly but they can certainly absorb your point of view on things. [/quote]
