Originally posted by Unregistered View PostU.S youth program has made great strides and with u12 DAP it should continue in a positive direction. I watched part of the match and must say that the technical level of the Portuguese players is certainly on a higher level, despite the score. On the other hand, the U.S. players (and coaches) deserve credit for focus and mental toughness. Portugal players are so soft, just an embarrassing collapse.
DAP coaching is crap. The whole nature of the concept in the US is crap. High technical skills and creativity are the essence of soccer. DAP teaches neither. The most talented players get their technical training outside of DAP. DAP coaching only retards growth.

The players entering DAP at 12 got their skills outside of the program and DAP will only slow their growth. But because DAP is the top of the pyramid (what an appropriate word-as in scheme)), so the best players will still flock there.

Players who are not afraid to stretch their limits and imaginations so they can discover their full potential. You are right some DAP will coached a player creativity out of them bc their are too focus on the system.
