Game IQ is a severe problem in youth soccer in America. Not only for the kids but for the parents, too. They are over-invested in training, playing games, and winning trophies but underestimate the value of watching, researching, and learning the game.

I often catch myself telling players not to be so hard on themselves. Then I remember my upbringing. I was wrong. You should be hard on yourself. Being hard on yourself gets results. It’s the negative self-talk that keeps you from the results you desire.
