Just watch his U11 team play possession soccer. No wonder this video went viral.

Notice how these 10 year olds play possession soccer. Notice the player formations. All players are on the same page. All players are tactical and technical. And when they lose the ball they do what ever it takes to get the ball back right away. True Tiki Taka and the product of a coach that knows what he’s doing.

A couple of gags or a rocket launcher would be needed before I'd let my kid play for either of the coaches on that soundtrack...joystick much?
 
I feel like you can learn a lot of these possession soccer from playing fifa on ps4. Certainly you need that to win beyond the beginner level.

Our team is the oldest girls team at the moment. Young club but with a great philosophy to soccer development. Out here in LA Ole is the club you want to put your child in for the young ages.

for boys it’s a little different imo. There is a lot of good boys teams and programs around here. I can’t say the same for girl teams.
