So many touches
I was worried he'd be standing around but the groups were small and he was on the ball the whole time. Proper coaching, stopping the drills to make sure he gets the right habits down.

Not enough time to show what they could do
Coaching was solid but a few days just isn't enough time to really see what these coaches can do with a kid. Felt like he was finally getting into a rhythm right as it ended. Would come back for a longer format.

Honest advice
I asked if he should just focus on soccer and drop his other sports and the coach told me to keep him in a few for now. Didn't expect that honesty.
