Yes, her DA training was 4x a week. Of course, Deza trained 4 times a week when they were ECNL.
I was influenced by reading how Ajax trained their top youth players. One of the concepts they implemented was more training and fewer games with one of the benefits being that it reduced the chance of injury (article below, behind a paywall). It makes sense if you see how the pros schedule their games. Generally, two games a week, at most, in professional soccer. Fatigue not only reduces the skill level, but it also increases the risk of injury. I remember my daughter's last year before DA - 5 games at Surf (Sat-Mon), then 5 more games at Mustang (Thu-Sun). The team that won both those tournaments played 11 games - in 9 days. Even if they weren't full games based on time, that was easily 5 full games in 9 days. Insanity if you ask me. Training intensity can be managed so that body doesn't need days of recovery.
In Europe, a cutting-edge talent factory trains elite soccer players — starting at age 7.
