Teenage Expectations

Today’s training was bound to be crazy one with 3 age groups all there at once and me being the one to blamed for everything which was going to be wrong, we did an hour of training and played 10 minutes that was when we had to leave the field because it was reserved by another team for an hour. I used that hour to talk to my players, sing some top eurovision songs and take some pictures which turned out just about fine.

then we had another hour in our hands I arranged for my 12 year old players to have a friendly game with another team of 12 and 13 year olds which ended 5-4 in our favor although this game had its reverse effects on us one of players which I took off shouted at me and ran to his home because he thought he should play longer I really don’t know how and in which language I should tell these kids that it’s only a friendly.

but this wasn’t the end after that game my 14 year old players had a session which included some 15 year olds and some 12 year old stars which I chose for that training, which went very well with two of our players who were sick a day before coming back.

4 hours later I had a stupid chat with one of 14 year olds, he wasn’t happy with the fact that I didn’t play him as a keeper in 12 year olds game, he even went as far threatening to quit which was stupid 3 hours later he was all different though I don’t get what’s with some of these kids.
