[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve asked this before, is kick and run the same as breaking lines with through balls and direct play? I dont think they are. But i think the team that over emphasizes the over the top or through ball to the flag for the fast forwards from the half line every... single... time , while exciting for a 40 yard dash, is stale and lacking in development. [/quote] Yes. The point is that long ball soccer, while an effective tactic for winning games especially if you have the personnel (fast forwards) and are playing against a team that has also not developed its players and playing style, is not conducive to kids developing skills they need to play any other way. The kids don't get asked to control the ball, play in tight spaces, make and recieve passes etc. So since the kids never get to practise these skills, they don't develop them either.[/quote]
