Twitter is a difficult medium upon which to have a debate. 140 characters simply isnt enough to state ones case on any subject, let alone to have a back-and-forth discussion with a number of interested parties. Such was the case the other day, when the topic of substitutions in youth soccer games was broached. Unlimited substitutions - where players are free to be substituted and to re-enter a game as often as the coach likes - is a rule that exists in many leagues across the country. In recreational soccer, where equal playing time is a priority, this rule is completely understandable. It allows coaches to manage playing time more effectively, ensuring that young players are getting as much time on the field as possible. Even in competitive soccer, this rule is acceptable. While some coaches abuse the rule - to rest their star players for a few minutes or to micromanage their teams tactics - most coaches use it to ensure that all of their players receive a fair amount of playing time. The discussion gets more complicated, though, when you consider unlimited substitutions in high-performance youth soccer, which begins for players aged 12 and up. Leagues such as the BCSPL in British Columbia; the LSEQ in Quebec; and the OPDL in Ontario (set to begin play in 2014) are high-performance leagues designed to provide the optimal learning environment for our best young players. These leagues have slight differences in their structures, but their intent is the same - to fully develop the technical, tactical, physical and mental abilities of our best young players. The argument in favour of unlimited substitutions tends to come down to this: the coach feels that the best way to teach the player is to reinforce coaching points during the game, whenever a mistake or teaching moment occurs, by removing the player from the game for a detailed explanation. The ability to substitute a player at that time, in order to explain the coaching point on the sidelines, is central to this argument. I disagree with this perspective, for a number of reasons. First, I believe that in order to learn, players must be given the freedom to make mistakes within a game. It is part of their learning process and we, as coaches, should avoid micromanaging players on the field of play. If we dont, we become what I refer to as joystick coaches; using players to fulfill our idea of how the game is supposed to unfold, almost like a human video game. By micromanaging players, we also run the risk of destroying their natural creative instincts. Those instincts need to be nourished and encouraged, not suppressed and stymied. This is exactly what unlimited substitutions promotes, because players live in fear of making a mistake and being taken off of the field. We want to develop more creative players in Canada, not less. Second, good coaches make mental or written notes during a half of play, in order to address those coaching points at the half-time break or during the post-game debrief. Substituting one player in order to address a coaching point with them (only to put them back into the game moments later) isolates that player and deprives his/her teammates of benefiting from that same lesson. For example, if a player is repeatedly receiving the ball with a closed body shape (facing the ball squarely when receiving a pass, as opposed to being side-on where they are able to see the ball and the space around them), isnt that a coaching point that all of the players should learn? Would it not be preferable to explain that coaching point to everyone, so that they may all benefit from that lesson? And is that not a lesson that can delivered during the half-time or post-game debrief, and then practiced in training? Third, high-performance leagues like the BCSPL, the LSEQ and the OPDL are intended to involve our best young players - our top prospects. Some of these players will be selected for our provincial and national youth teams, will be vying for places in professional club academies, and as they get older, will be vying for soccer scholarships and professional contracts. It is vitally important, then, that we gradually develop the energy systems they use in order to play a full 90-minute game when they reach the appropriate age. The development of the aerobic and anaerobic capacities of the players will never be maximized if coaches use unlimited substitutions to give players a breather during games. It is a crutch that players use when they are tired, rather than modifying their play to adapt to the physical demands at any given point during a game. This adaptability is essential at the elite levels to which these players aspire, and if we are not going to develop that adaptability during their developmental years, it will never be fully realized. Finally, I feel that a coachs stance on the use of substitutions in high-performance youth games is shaped by their attitude towards the games themselves. Far too many coaches involved at this level view the outcomes of games as a reflection of their coaching ability, rather than as a tool to measure the learning needs of their players. If their team wins, they consider themselves a great coach. If their team loses, they view themselves as failures. This attitude needs to change. Coaches are teachers, and should view themselves as such. Their job is to teach their players the skills they need to advance to the next stage of their soccer careers. Yes, results are important to the self-esteem of the developing player, but at no time should the result of a game be put ahead of the learning needs of the players involved. A big part of the teaching process for youngsters involves players being allowed to make mistakes during games. No mistake is so great that it cannot wait until half-time or post-game for an explanation. In the worst case scenario, a player can be called over to the sideline to have the coaching point explained to them, after which they can carry on playing. This approach will only work, however, if the coach views the game as a learning experience for every player. As Confucius once said, "I hear and I forget; I see and I remember; I do and I understand." The time for players to hear and see (and try) is in training. The time for them to do is during a game.

Starting with what is a catch and what is pass interference.Two plays in the post-season have made those hot subjects, NFL football operations chief Troy Vincent said Thursday. That really hit home when Vincent heard a caller to a talk radio show suggest fans needed to watch games with a rule book at their side.No question this and coaches challenges will be the topics, Vincent said, looking ahead to next months discussions by the leagues influential competition committee.The Detroit Lions, feeling burned by a non-interference call in a playoff loss to Dallas, already have proposed expanding the use of instant replay for coaches challenges. Dean Blandino, the NFLs officiating director, said the competition committee will look into adding to what calls are reviewable, as it does each year.That committee, which makes recommendations to the 32 owners on rules changes, also will re-examine the process of the catch rule that cost the Cowboys Dez Bryant in a post-season loss to Green Bay.Blandino, who like Vincent is on the powerful committee, said its members look at any situation ... any time a team brings up an issue that has to be looked into.A contraction of the massive rule book also will be considered, but Vincent warned that for any proposed changes, every conceivable effect needs to be examined.How do we create that culture for everyone of clarity and consistency? Vincent said, noting its a major challenge. Thats where the wisdom comes in — how we got to here, and how do we adjust to keep this or this from happening as a result (of changes)?Public consternation over officiating this season became an uproar in the playoffs after the non-call in Detroit-Dallas, and the replay reversal in Dallas-Green Bay.Blandino said Thursday the officiating rate of accuracy was on par with last season, although he didnt indicate what that rate was. He noted the league is keenly aware of the impact an officiating mistake can have on the outcome of games.Which could lead to expanded use of replay reviews, although thhe league is loath to add too much and slow the games to a crawl.ddddddddddddbsolutely there are discussions going back to last season, Blandino said, and adding to the list of reviewable plays. Weve stayed away from areas that involved subjective judgments: holding, pass interference. As technology has improved, all that begs the question, Can we eliminate some mistakes that happen in a game?There are several proposals from the clubs and they will be discussed with the competition committee.Patriots coach Bill Belichick previously has suggested everything be challengeable, but the coaches still would be limited to two (or if successful on both, three) challenges.Well do extensive review of film and make a proposal on any changes, Blandino said.The owners will gather here in March for what are likely to be very active meetings.Vincent and Blandino indicated adding an eighth on-field official isnt likely. But with the increase in spread offences and the pro game moving from run-oriented to highly pass-oriented, it also will continue to be considered.The problem with an additional official is theres no certainty it would solve any officiating problems, and the number of flags thrown easily could increase with another person blowing whistles.Penalties were up two per game in 2014, which doesnt seem like much considering the heavy emphasis on defensive holding calls. After a preseason and early season in which teams struggled to avoid flags, those calls diminished as the players and coaches adapted.The length of games decreased for the first time since 2008, which Blandino attributed to wireless communications among officiating crew members, and league headquarters consulting with referees on video replays.Getting back to that fans reaction to the Cowboys-Packers game, Vincent noted that whenever there were difficult calls in the past, we expanded the rule book.That sometimes made it difficult for the officials to articulate what the rule is, Vincent said. Football should be simple.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Warriors Jerseys Authentic Cavaliers Jerseys Cheap Spurs Store Celtics Jerseys Online Cheap Bulls Jerseys Cheap Nets Jerseys Cheap Thunder Jerseys Cheap 76ers Jerseys Cheap Knicks Jerseys Wholesale Raptors Jerseys Cyber Monday Pistons Jerseys Wholesale Team USA Basketball Jerseys Cheap Celtics Jerseys Cheap Nets Jerseys Cheap Knicks Jerseys Cheap 76ers Jerseys Raptors Jerseys From China Cheap Bulls Jerseys Cavaliers Jerseys From China Wholesale Pistons Jerseys Bucks Jerseys From China Pacers Jerseys Outlet Authentic Hawks Jerseys Cheap Hornets Jerseys Cheap Heat Jerseys Cheap Magic Jerseys Authentic Wizards Jerseys Cheap Nuggets Jerseys Timberwolves Jerseys Outlet Wholesale Thunder Jerseys Cheap Blazers Jerseys Cheap Jazz Jerseys Discount Warriors Jerseys Wholesale Clippers Jerseys Wholesale Lakers Jerseys Cheap Suns Jerseys Cheap Kings Jerseys Discount Mavericks Jerseys Authentic Rockets Jerseys Discount Grizzlies Jerseys Cheap Pelicans Jerseys Spurs Jerseys From China ' ' '
