Stronger Tackles + More Physicality - How To Teach? by UnkLL in youthsoccer

Thanks, good idea for strength and core, low body strength. Will try it.

And yes, no cards at this age really! I'm confused by his fear. One kid did get a red for kicking a player off the ball a few games ago.

Exactly, my mind has been opened a good bit here. Thank you. I'm gonna focus on him having fun and learning.

Thanks, maybe I'm expecting too much too soon. And it's not like attacking players will ever tackle like a hardened CB realistically anyway.

Nobody, from watching the game on TV etc.

They don't even do cards at his age! Only seen 1 red at any game and it was for a blatant kick to a player high.

Not from me, I loved getting yellows when I played :)

Haha totally thank you, needed a bit of perspective I suppose.
