U10 Boys In Training

April 4, 2012

What progress we've seen in these boys over the last few weeks.  I have to say, I'm very proud of the club's decision to withdraw our youngest teams from the indoor league tournament the last couple weekends.  League play is one thing for these guys, but the tournament play is a totally different animal.  That we do the one tournament a year is, believe it or not, the cutting-edge of long term player development, and it takes guts to buck conventional wisdom the way the board did at the April 1 board meeting.

The point being, we have continued to hammer the U10s with passing technique, the concept of the 1-2 (give and go) and the introduction of the use of space to expose the defense and then exploit the defense via ball movement which is, of course, far faster than a defender can run.

Here's some video of a recent training session...I'm excited to post another clip in a month or two and see the difference.  Enjoy!
