I see this more and more around America. Our young generation creates their own soccer culture. My son plays indoor in GA (we moved from so cal)...
I think this also tells the tale of why our national team is mediocre, of ole. Our new kids are diverse and better, still no real latin influence,...
I agree with you. It's the culture inept. Things are changing... and my boy is proof.
The technique and form you can learn yourself and teach those things after the practice session with just you and your son. Let him have fun with...
Things are changing... not all brothers have to be in the military to see the world and become "cultured." My son... will travel the world at an...
I didn't hand pick anything... those were the first names that popped in my pretty bald head. I don't have the answer for our soccer, but all the...
I am not fabricating anything. Balotelli, Messi, Ronaldhino, Jack Wilshire, Ashley Cole, etc... they were all found at early ages. It happens a...
I think the difference is growing into another more professional role at a young age. That's what Euro and South American Countries do. They get...
Some newbooties just went with the title and didn't read the first page or what the book is about. I didn't read the book, but love the idea that...
Not always... I think what you said about the "gadgets" and time spent is major. They still play basketball... but online on ps3 and what not. My...
Awesome video kid. What I have my son do is juggle with his left. My daughter can get up to a hundred or so just with her left. My son,...
I don't know. I'm happy with the training he is getting with his team now. They may decide to play in the new league next season. And in the...
The league just split in California this year. It is about a grand a year to play for Barcelonausa. That is low compared to my dd's club is around...
They go pass u11... but the way California works...development is not the highest priority on most of the parents list. They all tend to go toward...
That team you are talking about is U11 now. They are the epitome of a good team and I think one of the kids practices in Italy part of the year....
Someone said this will happen "more and more." I agree... with the internet age, travel, people working online, also smarter american parents in...
Right here!
How important is it for a U15 player to make that trip out to Arizona? Are their really gonna be college coaches there that could-would reach out?
Shouldn't both the manner of judgment? (One Must Lead To The Other)
EXACTLY. All of Europe's top talent play for top clubs sometimes starting under 10! They are raised to be great ballers. We wont do that to the...
My bad... and thanks. We need more parents like this? If that is what you are saying, I agree! Although, its' an oxymoron in accordance to what we...
This becomes an American problem of recognition of the young footballers. I think acknowledgment and nurturing is something we just wont-don't do...
At least someone is looking at young talent in the US. Our bushi attitudes about being too good to look, give credit, acknowledge, or believe in...
We were not as technical with juggling with cones... but I believe my kid is on the same path, with skills and shots, as this boy. He has been...
Cool videos guys. My son is 8 playing u10 ayso and is averaging several goals a game. This video sucks but was his first game ever in league... so...
