..so kiddos have been playing U6 and U8 soccer which was mostly "chase"..the older one is now in U10 and I've become the default coach. The team is in a rec league and like most rec leagues it has some fairly skilled players and some that are on the fence.
I understand the basics of the game plus a little, but am learning on the job as far as the "best for us" formation and how to relay to the kids the dynamics of what they are playing. The league is 6v6 and we have been playing a 2-3 with the main problems being that teams will just split the two defenders and score at will and that I think three on offense are running too much as the past two games have been played pretty much on the other team's half of the field. Granted I know some of the kids simply lack aggressiveness, but any thoughts or links that could give me some guidance?
(Located in the south and soccer is sporadic as far as popularity and noticed that this forum had quite a bit of traffic...)
Thanks
