[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]U5 is very different to U7.

At U7 kids should be able to play to a basic formation rather than charging round the field in a pack surrounding the ball.

By playing to a formation you create space which gives all kids on the field time on the ball and room to dribble without being overrun by 7 other kids.[/quote]

Is this a joke?  U7 is mostly kindergarteners.  They are playing sharks and minnows at practice to learn how to dribble.  If you can get all of them engaged in the game and no one is picking daisies, that’s a success.[/quote]

U7 is actually mostly first grade. [/quote]

That’s the hair you want to split?  Either way, it’s a group of kids who are 5 and 6 years old at the start of the fall season.  The idea that you can expect those kids to play in formations only shows a total lack of understanding of child development.[/quote]

Well you repeatedly stated something that was wrong so I pulled you up on it. And many kids can play in a formation at U7.[/quote]
