SC Soccer Forums SCSoccer.com Forums Club Soccer & ODP Expectations for women's soccer development must be higher

could be in how a player is taught.may be taught to pass more than attack.
it is something a kid has to look at when going thru the recruitment process.if i am an attacking type player then a school that plays possesion ball may not be the place for me.

I teach my girls to just boot it

We can tell......

heh heh...

Hard Head,

I've heard more than one coach pay the ultimate tribute to your daughter:

"She plays like a guy".


Daddy,

Don't you be telling that junk to Little Daddy. You know we think he's a very good player.


Cantona,

Remember, it's not how hard you boot it, or what direction you boot it. What's most important is how HIGH you boot it!

It's not about playing like a "boy or a "girl". The Development of girl’s soccer takes learning strong basic skills then building ball control. Coaches who will train girls to be players, athletes. Meaning both physical and position soccer. People want to talk about UNC and ND and the U.S. team like its 2 different groups of players. It's the same girls, just different styles of play. Most US players grow up learning one style of play, one system of play, for our players to develop us as coaches need to teach different styles and systems of play. We need to introduce creative and set pieces. Kids need to experience different coaches not the same one for years. The more exposure players have to different coaches and styles the better prepared they are for what every level that want to reach. We need good coaches who want to train girls.

Well said!!
