Oh wow. It's not like it was when I was last here in 2014 :laugh: I guess I'll try kickstarting a ton as I return this fall as a u10 coach.
there's an experiential aspect to this. it's one thing to be "told" not to stab at the ball. it's one thing to "know" why you shouldn't stab at...

for a while, my men's team suffered from too much indoor (at least, that was my theory). it's a different game. the spacing is different, which...
interesting... my experience too (almost exactly)--pointyball, basketball, tennis. and the very same principles reinforced.
let me call it something different then. not "rational intelligence", instead "academic intelligence".
