U14 - results of research/homework!

We have now analysed everyone's comments - thanks for completing the sheets.

Areas we need to improve were categorised as follows, with the number of players mentioning them shown:

NO TACKLING 5 players
NOT CLEARING BALL 4 players
DON’T PASS EARLY ENOUGH 4 players
NEED TO SHOOT EARLIER 2 players

Generally, we need to clear the ball at the first opportunity, shoot earlier, get tougher in tackling and look for passes earlier rather than trying to beat the whole team.

Other comments included:

General comments:
SCARED OF OTHER TEAM
GIVE UP TOO EASILY
NO FIGHT
LET BALL BOUNCE
KICK OFFS TOO PREDICTABLE
LOOK TIRED
CONTROL BALL BETTER
WANDERING OUT OF POSITION

Defensive comments
GOALIE SHOULD CLEAR BALL QUICKER
MARKING AT CORNERS
MIDFIELD DON’T HELP DEFENCE OUT ENOUGH

Attacking comments
NEED BIGGER PLAYERS UP FRONT

Let's work on these areas on Sunday and look for improvement, especially in the top areas which were mentioned the most.
