Yes exactly. I'm one of the PP's talking about how the gifted kids play a lot. This is NOT happening because their parents are pushing them. Basically these kids just want to play because they love it - and they find ways to do so - the parents couldn't stop them if they tried.

So I completely agree with this. If your kid wants to play Super Y, then sign them up for it. It's fun. If they would rather not play, then don't sign them up for it.



Super Y is awful. And playing all the time doesn't make you better (but it will cause injury.). No, not all the "best" kids are playing all the time. No, not all the best kids are doing personal training, etc.



Bro I dont know you but I promise you your kid isn't even in the conversation with the "BEST" kids


You sound arrogant.



Not the PP here - and he may sound a little arrogant - but the other poster (the one who thinks the best kids aren't playing all the time) is just wrong when he suggests that the top kids don't play all the time. They do. And most of the next tier down play all the time too. I'm guessing this guy doesn't even know who the top kids are, and has probably never heard of the Bolivian league either. He's right about none of them (at least as far as I'm aware) doing one-on-one with a personal trainer though.


I'm the poster your referring to....go ahead and have your kid play 24-7. Do what you feel. Thats your business. I'm offering my opinion. You don't like it? Disregard it.

Most of your kids will stop playing by 16. Enjoy



What is your problem?

Super Y is a pretty casual experience. Perhaps some training once or twice a week and about 8 games. Because it is summer missing games and practices is expected. It just isn’t that big a deal or commitment. Relax and don’t worry about what someone else’s kid is doing.


I kinda said that above.

Thank you for your support. As they say, it’s better to burn out than to fade away.

Are you talking about the Bolivian indoor league in Annandale? I’m the original poster and my ds was invited to join a team after a futsal game he did decent in. Is it a good league? I know it’s pretty unofficial, but how good is the quality? I think we may do it with Super Y.



The "Bolivian league" encompasses indoor, outdoor, 5v5, 8v8 and 11v11 tournaments and leagues that run all the time. It basically works by informal invitation and the teams are coordinated by the kids themselves. The level is mixed - but there are some very good teams (and the teams change from month to month) and between about U13 and U16 you will find many of the top players from the area playing.


This is amazing to know. Thanks. Ds is U14 and I think it would be good for him to try it out. Will take up the invite.

I find this debate/discussion very interesting.

Overuse injury: there a many articles that indicate Ronaldo, Messi, Marta and other South American male/female players constantly playing street soccer ball for hours and hours each and every day while growing up. Never heard anyone or any article mentioning overuse injuries.

Must be the way we Americans train and/or play that causes overuse injuries.

So don't have your kid play, it's that simple. Others enjoy playing all summer. My son plays Super Y every summer and loves it. His club doesn't have a Super Y team, so it gives him a chance to play with other players and with different coaches. Also, has never gotten an injury!


My kid doesn't play. Thats not the point. I have nothing against playing Super Y for fun. My point was for the parent who believes that the best kids have to be constantly playing in order to stay the best. Its simply not true. I truly believe that kids should be given time off from their sport in order to excel in it.
