[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Coming to this discussion late, but some thoughts from a U18 parent. Coaching and teams are very important early on, but the best thing you can do for your young player is get him/her individual technical training. 1 - 2 times per week. I did this not knowing how important it would be, and I am so happy I did it. By HS age in club, technical skills are what distinguishes great players. At U9 - U12, its pure athleticism. You could give the A team a basketball or a tennis racket, and they would win. From about U13 onward, its all technical skills. I see thing with one of my kids - not the fastest on the field, but his technical skills are superior to most. Definitely not a college player, but he'll always have a place on a club team/HS team just because his technical skills are so good.[/quote] Where do you find good individualized training? Looking in Fairfax county. Thanks for the good advice.[/quote]
