We have so many kids here with proper development our kids would be equal to any country. You can not play each other for seven years and think we have developed players. Kids must play against better soccer countries to learn and develop. HPL is just cash cow for coaches and board guys. Soccer...
Both Canada and USA are out of World cup play. Today Italians also went home. World soccer is getting tougher by the year. Local soccer is miles behind those levels. Caps try to develop but fail on regular development. Only two three guys in last 10 years got the jobs is noting more than...
The player did get attacked by his teammates. That tells you what is going on over all. One can see it when you see what is going on at U 12 youth soccer and type of selections they use. High level soccer is nothing more than pay to play here and even more selection of kids of board people and...
The games and standings are posted on www.4districtsoccer.com. Move down and click on schedules. I pointed it out years ago that rep or gold teams should play each other in both districts four and five finally it's here.
I went to see Burnaby Metro Selects and must say level of soccer is very...
Again our men just can not score a goal. Team plays hard but can not score. Even with Actavio Zambrano at helm we get sent home.
Youth coaches must let our kids dribble up top to lean the game better. Few good things I did see, team is much younger three guys off of Caps were in starting eleven...
We are OK on D as far as Canada goes and always did. The trouble is in last third our players always drive forward and turn the ball over way much. Young Davies has got ways to get there. He try's hard and runs but in tight still turns the ball over. I was watching their last game and can say...
Burnabu guy also runs a club in Vancouver. To me that is how all that pouching starts. One try's to sit on two chairs almost every time will end up on his ars. The biggest problem is over coaching of kids at young age. Most get turned off by fourteen due to over pushing on win loss. KIds need to...
It does not matter where you play,what matters is what kind of coach you have. As a youth player it is all about your skill development. wins and loses really don't mean a thing. Making mega clubs or mega districts is just a paper work. Most of them paper pushers never played a game. What I do...
Southsloper all this really means nothing. If District Four and Five get as one all that means dads and mothers will drive all over the place. Our development still lacks in three big areas. If we took a gold team to play three clubs over the boarder than you would get what I am talking about...
Thanks TKBC I did not think to join at the same level. I do think kids would develop faster by playing better kids from Surrey Langley and White-Rock in a gold level format. Feeder system to Metro soccer would be better.
Local club board guys hold everything back to give their kids a place at...
Try City has lots of X players coaching. These guys will get a chance to coach in Four District it will be big help to youth in Four District. Any program is as good as a coach doing it. Port Moody has improved tons since Johnny came to that club. In this area lots of fathers coach most played...
Four District is much bigger from this September on. Ty City has joined Four District Soccer, soccer in this area can only get better. Mega clubs will win out at the end of it all due to better skill and number of better players on each side. Smaller clubs will have to do way more to show...
TKBC Steven Reed is our head guy of Canadian Soccer Association Also at the same time to let Admin know. We have ten Provinces plus three non Provinces each one try's to run it's own program has nothing to do with Canadian program. It only gives a Canada program to select a player or two from...
Cascadia is a very nice name for youth soccer league or senior men. There is so many leagues here that it simply make parents go nuts. All the leagues are looking to grab as much as they can from each child. Net result at U 18 is a beer league.
Kids go to Caps programs and if you reed papers...
Admin no one wants our players, it make you laugh. Both Linden and Benning have huge problem with trades. No we will lose one of these guys Sbisa ,Dorsett, Gaunce or Boucher. I heard they are looking at Sweed five foot seven 155 LBS. Boots full of crap what's next.
We could be in a tree way deal with Montreal and Colorado, Colorado needs D Tanev would be huge help. Montreal loves Duchane Canucks need Galchaniuk. It remains to be seen, by next Saturday lists will be out what players will be protected, I think we will lose Sbisa or Gaunce. My gut tells me...
Kids over train here period pre-residency or not. Development angle starts falling after two years. If you look at Caps or some other development practices it makes you laugh. Practice is at slow pace kids over dribble. Worlds game is one two move the ball. Worlds finish is way above ours.
Caps...
No one will give us two picks in top five for Tanev. One in first round and one in third third for Tanev might be done. Stars need D we need C-man. Today Montreal got Druen for youg Rusian D. Good move by both clubs. Canucks need goals there is no need to add a D in first round. There is no one...
Draft is coming up in a short while. I hope Canucks take Glass as number one pick.
Team needs number on centre with size Glass could do the job. Use second round to add two good D prospects.
Traves Green has a very tough job in the fall. We will most likely lose Sbisa to Knights. Our D needs...
