Guest FrannyG Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 can't understand why you are struggling, Admin posts what looks like someone who knows a lot what's going on and I say its great that site has a coach in the know, What's wrong with that? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a coach at rfc. Your comment about independent website etc was a bit strange tho. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmu 0 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I'm not replying for him. I am just curious your angle. You havent really expanded in your op despite a few folks putting up some info about pro youth from their own experiences. I thought, and perhaps wrong, that your comment about admin/coach(although he never said he was)/independent site was a bit sarky! So thats not the case, so what is your connection or concern re pro youth set ups? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no connection of youth football, It was raised due to a fellow bear at work complaining about things that go on at his sons club, I thought he was maybe making excuses because his lad is out the team 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmu 0 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Ok doki. No idea how rfc works. At aberdeen there was the usual arse lickers who fawned over the coaches for favour. Dont think it made any difference there as decisions on who stayed who went was not down to one individual but more collective input. They were big into equal time at younger age groups. They would pre plan teams and which periods the lads played etc.they didnt change it even if they were getting humped. Parents are a problem at every level. We had a couple of roasters who could pick a fight anywhere. In my experience hibs parents were a nightmare, agressive, usual shouting to "nail him" kinda crap at 11 year olds. As i said teams with good record on developing youth seemed to have a more balanced appoach. To answer your question, depending on what the team is, it could well be that your mates lad got a raw deal or just making excuses for his lad not doing so well. At times it was the best thing as your lad is playing at highest level and at other times it was horrible as it was like a pressure cooker. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
