And they don’t practice throw-ins either.
The other weird thing I also notice, is nobody ever practices the coin toss either. I mean every game has one and if you could win the coin toss the game gets easier.

U11s need to work on many other critical skills, especially since most haven't been taught much of anything from the youngest ages. US soccer is forever playing catchup.

That’s bull****, corners can be worked into any drill. Just because it may not be the main focus doesnt mean you ignore it.

The focus should be on development at that age. First touch and passing is a better use of time than corners. Now, perhaps a drill or two before a tournament or something, ok. Who doesn't want to win after all... but more than that is a waste.

Practicing Corners go hand in hand with trying to win the game , we are just developing , get with the program !!!
U can practice corners and limit headers for the younger kids , it’s all about creativity, except that will limit the time spent on the robotic drills that will eventually make us a world soccer super power lol

It is better to teach in game crosses that occur far more often and share a majority of actual elements involved in a cross but are far more organic in nature. If forwards can get behind the defense and cross consistently then the corner kicks will be easier later on to teach and far more meaningful.
