@adamvietDSM This is great. Different sport, but I see SO MUCH nonsense in soccer games and practices that aren't helping kids actually become better players.
my 18 yr old daughter just started asst. coaching a u11 boys team
a player said to her: “if I think I can dribble through all the other players can I try?”
my daughter said: “yes, as long as you promise to try to get it right back if you lose it”
I thought that was great
1998 ruled. When Mark McGwire hit 62 and Sammy Sosa came running in from right field and they each did each other's respective celebratory gestures, that ruled.

I don’t know how else to tell you this, but we look up, notice a bald eagle flying over our house… hear a big thud on our roof… and find this in our yard 🎣
Repeat after me: good communication requires repetition.

SKILL: “Focusing on one skill at a time leads quickly to noticeable improvement. But over time, such focused practice actually limits our development... Mixing or “interleaving” multiple skills in a practice session, by contrast, sharpens our grasp of all of them.” (Carey) #TOVO

The amount of comments agreeing to this is so infuriating!
Baseball charges so much, how about you use the money to purchase extra equipment.
I have extra GK gloves, shinguards, balls and jerseys in my car in case.

HS coach friend of mine spoke w/ D1 coach late last week about one of his players. College coach saw kid play before & watched a recent video. I asked my buddy what the coach asked about his player: 1) How’s kid off the field? 2) How are his grades? 3) What are the parents like?
In memory of Katie Meyer, we want to purchase goalie gloves, cleats and shinguards for low-income girls across the country to play. May her spirit live on in all of them.
