Please tell us what team this legendary coach is on so that all defenders can seek his guidance. This one of kind coach has the insight to train 11 year old defenders how to react to an offensive player’s change of direction, spin move, head bob, or any other kind of move in a split second with precise accuracy. Defenders react to offensive moves, with little time to do so. If they guess right it is great defense, guess wrong and uneducated parents lash out. Just ask your son to always run straight up and down, with no bobing, weaving, duck moves or spins, and the issues that concern you go away. Some parents will always find an excuse as to why their son underperformed their expectations in a game. The defense is an easy target. Let your offensive player play defense for a game, and let us critique his every move. Defenders don’t complain about the hacks from attack or middies, the careless one handed whip checks they receive as they clear the ball up the field, etc. Also ironic to see these complaining parents erupt on their sideline as one of their defenders makes a big hit. See what you want to see.
