@MUFCBulls V @SthSideCometsFC tomorrow night @MUFCBulls @FootballFnq @CARLO22938017 @collins_td @FootballQLD https://t.co/lgf6T0xFlq

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella Perfect,I'd recommend that to any young player. No probs Kat, hope we can one day catch up for that glass of red.😃

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella Or the Arsenal, Southampton or West Ham Utd EPPP that they are 'wrong' because they do it different to Man City-all subjective

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella That's my opinion based on my experiences and courses i have completed. Any other person telling you anything else is lying

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella 3 parents asked if I thought S + C sessions for the U11 year old's was good I said no chance, it should all be ball related.

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella my S + C Licence last year on the 'A' licence and the 'expert' view is definitely not for pre-adolescents player development

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella So not really S + C at all then? more on ball and player movement and motor skills- 100% agree it is valuable . I completed

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella maybe a better term is movement and motor skills? I promise I would never bag Zen personally. Too much respect for him + Ang

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella 100% I gave my opinion to 3 parents who asked I share the belief of many experts and top academies re pre-adolescent s+c

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella take care with 'parents' tittle tattle . The politics and bitterness in FNQ I have had to endure past 9 years is draining

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella I told Zen and I promise you 100% I have never ever bagged Zen or the CF Academy. The parents loved Sydney trip I spoke to.

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella I don't hate s+ c- I apply it in my senior sessions- I just share an opinion that different top clubs have compared to yours

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@katcaravella Would love an invite! Always different opinions on s+c with kids But not on learning foundation technical skills

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@VinceRugari one of the greatest ever

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@tasmudger10 don't worry- we have 10's and 11 year olds doing strength and conditioning sessions up here. And parents pay not thinking!

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@tasmudger10 that's the trouble with football smudge- give your opinion and people are up in arms

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@CraigMoore_18 @TheWorldGame No real idea of how the game is played,what a genuine tackle is. Regulated by rules not game understanding

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@JayLStewart @QldSoccerNews yep

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@TomS_Soccer @WayneHarrison9 we'd know all about that Wayne ay?

[Chris Collins @collins_td]

@gregprichard @bonitamersiades @JoeCaletti. Always thought he was the main man since I first met him on our tour to Japan in 2012
