Sounds like a parent of a kid that goes to goal


You sound like a jealous bitter schmuck. My daughters team has a lot of girls (more than 10) who can "go to the goal" the team also has five girls who try to "run to the goal" almost every time they have the ball.

As the above post stated, there is a big difference between a girl who "runs to the goal" and girl who scores a lot of goals. There is also a big difference between a girl who can "go to the goal" when it is the right play and a girl who "runs to the goal" when she should be passing. Some girls make the play that is best for the team (with or without the ball) and some girls are extremely selfish. The team is strong with many very good players at all positions but there are some who play a very selfish game.

If the coaches do not correct the situation the team will fall short of their potential.




Teams that have coaches who allow selfish play will always come up short. My daughters team has a bunch of very good players who work their tails off and do all of the little things that contribute to the teams success. They hustle, communicate, pick up loose balls, re-defend, pass when appropriate, work off ball, play team defense and generally give great effort all over the field. They will also go to the goal when the situation dictates it. Unfortunately, we also have some lazy selfish players who hurt the team more than they help.
