Crying over Cones

PDA guys hate Danny . They are jealous he is his own boss, makes a better living, and doesn’t have to walk around picking up the Big Guys Cones at practice .

Is his facility open?

Or are they doing outside training?

Not true. My Ds coach has no issues AG per our convo and encourages outside work from whoever.

Besides offering great training, Danny is a real good guy. The kids love him and he has great sessions at a great price. There is a reason so many kids keep coming back to him. No matter where your kid plays they will benefit from AGAME.

Good for little kids, possibly bad for players over the age of 11. IMO it’s too much razzlr dazzle and not enough basic substance. The game isn’t who does the most maradonas, but that’s what they seem to teach. All that social media of scissors and spins and no one ever seems to practice just receiving and passing properly. It’s good stuff but there’s a definite shelf life.

Yes, however, like most kids who learn an assortment of moves while they are younger and more importantly, have the freedom to use at will, learn tremendous expression at a younger age. This is sorely missing from the American game where coaches teach toe taps and simple turns for a short period of time.

What i have seen is that the girls build a foundation of expression, and then as they get older their skills are pared down and they become more efficient. They tend to join high level teams where the coaches ask the players to play more quickly and to move the ball forward as quickly as possible. These players essentially mature. However, the benefit of learning in a format of freedom of expression are still with them and they are usually very technical on the field. When you combine that technical prowess with Athletic ability, these players stand out because they are able escape pressure and move the ball forward.

You must first be technical to play in any system

Perhaps you don’t understand the goal of this training. If scrimmages what you’re looking for and don’t want your kid to touch the ball - stick to match fit.

Most important - the sessions are extremely razzle-dazzle free. Players are encouraged to express themselves only for a short time. Perhaps you are confused with ability to control the ball with either foot at maximum speed.

From what I understand the goal of AGame is to help a player get better foot skills which will allow him or her to hold onto the ball when needed to create space and time in a game. No matter if it’s maradonas or any other move it’s basically thousands of touched on the ball each session and he does it in a fun and competitive environment. My daughter has benefited from his training. Danny has a great thing going and it is great supplemental training. If you think your kid has “mastered” these skills and moves and can’t benefit from this training you may want to check your mindset. You can always train to do these moves faster and sharper.

My daughter is a little older - U16- she went to Danny when she was younger and loved his program. These days she has a lot going on but always asks to drop in Danny's sessions because she feels she still gets a lot out of them
