    Long Ball in High School Girls soccer

    Wow. Teaching the girls to just kick the ball and hope for the best. What a lack of coaching discipline. Disgusting soccer and all the HS coaches playing this way.....teaching the girls bad habits.

        You have to do what you have to do to win some games. In high school witness a lot of pass, pass, pass... then long ball to get over the defenders or to the corner and then lose the possession and the other team kicks a long ball back and the cycle continues. At least in college there are more talented players to make it look better and even finish a goal.

            Kick ball happens a lot in club soccer as well. Some of the "top" teams in R3 play long ball.

                      Yeah it does. My kid going to public school and getting a D1 scholarship while you pay the big bucks for your kids maybe getting into a D3 school!! Yeah it really bites.

                        Again, it is essentially free and the coach typically only has the players for 2-3 months a year. The coach is given a stipend under a couple of grand a year to run the program. In most cases, an area with 5-6 high schools may only have one decent club to get players from, many of those players will go to one school with a few being divided among the other programs. The rosters are filled out with kids who only play during the season and may be involved in other sports.

                        You are going to get less than desirable results under these circumstances. Bash it all you want, but it is what it is...

                          How little you know, but goes to show that ignorance really is bliss. I'm glad you're happy.

                            The worst situation is having the few kids with soccer IQ who get the game, be told to NOT play this way by an idiot coach. Kick and chase is UGLY soccer. I'm guessing the coach is not their to really develop the players, must be just the small $ they get to babysit.

                              And take all the credit when they win in spite of the coaching?
