Oscar Avilez (CAM "10) - @dcunited 🇺🇸
Despite being a year younger, he was impactful on both ends—offensively & defensively. He controlled the ball with assuredness under pressure and consistently used close-control touches to relieve it.

A fun night in Dunfermline showing a group of coaches some of my favourite Scoreboard Soccer games, plus some new ones from the Treasure Chest!
Development Through Praise ⭐️

If you needed an energiser today, this is probably it
Coaches have the unreal opportunity to be transformative with their language, practice and behaviours
In March I was lucky enough to visit North Carolina and deliver Scoreboard Soccer to the amazing @NCFC_Youth community ❤️
Here’s some coach and parent feedback from the event.
I’m looking forward to more trips in 2024 to continue sharing these fun games!
Coaches need the ability to switch focus from team tactics & formations - to the next level of small group interactions between 2/3s & units then switch lens to the individual player’s eye view with their capabilities like Thiago & understand how these levels of the game interact
DEAR PARENTS
Do not equate a club having the best players with the club having the best development program.
Many humble clubs carry players from baseline to better in more meaningful ways than clubs with power logos.
