[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last year Loudoun 07 was 3-0 and +10 on GD in group play and advanced to the WAGS final. This year they played 3 teams they beat last year at WAGS by a combined 7-0; this year they tied all 3. Lack of development exemplified.[/quote]

First year playing 11v11 full field probably more at root. [/quote]

It is the first year playing 11s for those other 3 clubs too. [/quote]

That wasn’t the point.  The game changes at full field 11v11.  Some advantages that players may have on the smaller field go away.  Also, depth matters more.   It’s not apples to apples. [/quote]

On the big field the wrestling matches stop and passing matters. Midfield is king but is very hard to find. I think this is because you do not develop offensive midfielders in our system in the u littles. The field is small and size, speed and physicality will win. You really do not need high soccer IQ or to be very skilled to do well under u13 in our system.

The full field and more players makes the game a lot more complex. The big girl pushing her way by smaller girls ends because everyone has gone through puberty. Everyone on the field will be physical and fast enough. It becomes a skill game at midfield. Defenses and goalkeeping get much better. Goals are hard to get. The premium is for players who can see the field, have foot skills to create space, hold the ball, pass accurately under pressure, move off the ball and creativity.

It’s a different game. It goes from checkers to chess. Calls for different skill sets at different positions vs 9v9. So things changed. [/quote]
