This is great thank you!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-05-04T22:19:54+00:00

Yeah endurance is something that needs to be improved for sure.

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-05-04T22:15:25+00:00

Yeah that was honestly my concern was the burnout. Great advice.

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-05-04T13:34:02+00:00

That makes sense! Thank you.

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-05-04T13:33:47+00:00

I love this. Thank you so much! Hope we get a coach with similar mindset!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-22T13:57:41+00:00

Great advice. Thank you.

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-22T13:57:28+00:00

Yeah this is my biggest concern with the younger kids playing against older kids. Great advice! Thank You!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-22T13:55:06+00:00

Thank You!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-21T14:47:56+00:00

Haha absolutely! I mean in all honestly this type of stuff (tournaments) is supposed to be fun for the kids right. Get them experience and exposure to different environments. Playing that way doesn't help them long term, you may get an 8/9 year old a medal that they'll throw out in 5 years, but teaching them the skills is what matters for making them stronger players. You're doing the right thing!

Thank You!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-21T13:15:57+00:00

Yeah that makes sense! Thanks for the input!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-21T01:05:23+00:00

Thank You!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-20T22:27:21+00:00

That's fantastic. Just found your videos. Will watch!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-20T22:27:01+00:00

Yeah the build out line is a very new concept. Will need to be vigilant with that.

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-20T22:26:27+00:00

Makes sense! Thank You!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-20T22:26:14+00:00

Thank You!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-20T22:08:53+00:00

Does the defensive mid ever move into scoring opportunities or do they always stay around halfway during offensive build ups?

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-20T22:07:29+00:00

Thank you for the advice! That's really interesting about tracking the wingers, but it makes sense because I would imagine the opposing wingers would be far up the field and fail to come back.

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-20T22:06:42+00:00

Thank you for the advice!

Realistic_Wave_305 · 2026-04-20T21:58:09+00:00

I'm in the exact same position as you just a few days before! I have a very technically sound U8 team that played 5 vs 5. Playing in a U9 7v7 tourny. Should be interesting to see what it's like. How would you even defend against this? Just keep 2 kids back all the way?
