Perhaps if children asking: "When are we having a game" is direct feedback to coach about type of practice design kids want to be part of. This also outline kids motivation behind the question and what they really looking for at early stage of their football experience.

Mental toughness is built, in part, by doing something that is hard (or uncomfortable) over and over again, especially when you don't feel like doing it. Stay positive and proactive to push through on your down days or when you don't have your A Game. #TheChampionsMind 🏆

Players: Don’t be the player who’s “too good” or “too cool” to work on your skills before or after practice. That’s when you should be working on your game. If you’re not, you can bet someone else is. You won’t have to worry about it on game day. Those who work will pass you by!
