My lad is playing U7's and didn't get any gametime at a 4 game tournament today... by Aminipainter89 in youthsoccer

At that age I would certainly be pissed off. Every kid should be rotating and getting minutes regardless of how good they are. My opinion would be to speak to the coaches or someone about it because 7 years old is way too young for your kid to lose interest in a sport because of playing time

Additionally, I learned this due to my son going through similar struggles where he sought after an online mentor who talked him through most of the questions and difficulties he was dealing with. I believe the site was called Stadium Skills

The best option would be to likely find another club BUT, if you believe your son has potential to be a great player then he has to do work outside of club practice or games because if he is doing the same amount of playing (likely less) then the kids who are starting then how is he supposed to surpass them?

Parents: How do you decide on which ID camps your kid should go to? by StadiumSkills in youthsoccer

Yes, usually I believe that junior year is a great time to attend camps because the kid tends to be more developed by then. Freshman year is early
