Originally posted by Unregistered View PostMy entire family has spent tons of time together over these last few months, thanks for asking. My kids choose to play soccer on their own, among many other things. Please just stop. I wish nothing but the best for your little donut girl. I’m sure she’s ready for that YNT camp, given that she’s the one true athlete out there.

Guess what? That’s when all the well rested true athletes will get back in the swing of things and continue to surpass proud Papa’s little Mia. There is no season. There are no showcases. Players have until August to get in shape.

Typical American thought process about soccer training.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostDifferent poster: my kid likes soccer, so she plays around with a ball when she gets bored and kicks it around with her siblings. She does drills when she notices that her touch is clunky and she maintains her non-soccer workouts because she’s an athlete and that’s what athletes do. She has no dream of winning a pacer test or setting a new personal best when her team reconvenes; that’s for the try-hards who struggle to get on the field. She knows the target # her coaches want her to hit, and always beats that #, but she knows that soccer involves a ball, multiple players and a couple of nets - not a running contest.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostBut according to the previous poster, the true athletes are sitting in bed eating donuts. Any kid who is putting in any time with a soccer ball or is running is a fraud.

There are only so many Zoom meetings and time on a computer anyone can take. We all want our kids to be social, have fun and learn skills which will help them later on in life. Hopefully our kids can get back on the fields soon and resume life in whatever the “new normal” is.
