For the 2019-2020 year, US soccer will examine the evidence and conclude that they should push back the age at which heading is permitted to U15.
Is this based on any data or inside information or are you just stirring the pot?

Goalies, defenders, you name it. Soccer is a contact support. Here's another one for our soccer hating posters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2Wwig-Uc8s
And, your favorite and mine: HEADER GOALS; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJEer4ajzEw
Oh yes, the beauty, the skills, this is such amazing soccer. LOVE it!
Puhleez. I don't hate soccer, but those "contact" clips was just bumping and positioning like posting up in basketball. Non-contact doesn't mean no touching in the traditional definition of these types of sports. Sorry if saying soccer is a non-contact sport diminishes your manhood (for lack of a better expression). It was like when people thought helmet-wearing hockey players were lesser players, whimps. Don't let this attitude prevent you from seeing that changes to rules and/equipment *may be* necessary.
I heard you asked to see more header goals, so as a tribute to our lady pros, here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KimnGs2JDn0
You're sooo awesome!

Changes aren't necessary; changes aren't coming.

Omg, then why in the world are you here? On a soccer forum? Soccer is and always has been a contact sport. Go find a place to be with other like minded souls. Today, there truly is something for everyone. But soccer is NOT for you. Clearly
DP - nitpick here, soccer like basketball is a non-contact sport with incidental contact and some bumping. If taking another player down were legal in soccer, then it would be a contact sport. Football, hockey, rugby, ... those are contact sports.

"Let there be no misunderstanding: Soccer is a contact sport."
I'd read that earlier and rolled my eyes.

bruh, do you even soccer?
not anywhere close to near the those mentioned. Did you even read the article you posted?
Bruh, yes I did. I could have posted several others, but I thought the break down was nice and simple for the simple folk who keep trying to morph soccer into something else.
I don't know what your first question is, but I for sure play, slide tackle, head the ball, and shoulder to shoulder isn't just simple brushing back and forth like lovers do. It's a physical contest for the ball.
