Yep. We did pace passing and 'threaded through balls' all the time in the 80s in practice.

Now I watch kids have zero concept of how to play a ball. My two sons get so frustrated when teammates need to play to space and not to feet on attack.

Glad I could teach that douche a new soccer term . Thanks all.

(shhhh I played soccer for 22 years, and come from a family of travel and professional coaches, and 2 pro players)---but wtf do I know?

I do that because I know more about soccer than you. "Threading balls". They're not in needlework class lady.

The lady certainly knows a lot more than you to have never heard that term. JFC

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! so true:

From the English Football dictionary:

To thread a pass means to pass the ball in a very accurate manner when there is not a lot of space - the player needs to measure the pass carefully.

To thread the ball through is another way of saying that the pass was threaded - the ball was squeezed through a small space or gap.

We also use the phrase 'slide rule pass' to describe a very accurate pass.

That idiot hasn't even watched a FIFA game if he doesn't know one of the simplest, frequently used terms.

NOR HAS HE EVEN PLAYED FIFA 20 ON XBOX HA.

You've never heard that term to refer to a certain kind of pass? In any sport really, not just soccer.

Yes, it is frustrating when your DC’s teammates sucks, but it’s not appropriate whatsoever to comment anything negative.

Snowflake. My kid needs teammates who don't suck. And if your kid sucks they need to hear it so they either shape up or ship out.

If your kid was so much better, they’d be playing for a better team. Sit down.

+1. Sit down and shut up! Let the intelligent adults talk.

If anyone criticized my kids at any age they'd have to deal with all four foot ten of me and it would not be pretty.

Also, I never had my kids with coaches that screamed at kids. Never. Walked away twice never looked back.

+1. I’m a parent of two boys that are also playing D1 soccer.

If anyone on our team that criticizes my boys during their youth soccer games, they would have to deal with my husband who is 6’6” 270 lbs and former D1 football player. There are many games that their uncles would attend who are as equally large and strong. It’s interesting that no parents ever criticize my boys back then even though they were late bloomers/growth spurts. I don’t know if the other parents were just decent human beings or were just too scared to piss off my husband.

Lady you would be surprised how many people pack heat and are not afraid to use it thats a huge equalizer to 6'6" 270lbs

And the sissies who “packed heat” can enjoy prison.

I’m 1000% certain that the true sissies are the adults that yell at young kids and not the people that pack heat.

Well, your kid needs parents who don't suck, too. Looks like he or she is 0 for 2.
