Is Running Laps a Waste of Time? I'm Not So Sure Anymore (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I watched a game this weekend that changed how I think about fitness in practice. Two teams, similar talent, wildly different outcome — and it came down to something most coaches don't want to talk about. I'm breaking down what I saw, borrowing a personal finance trick to make sense of it, and admitting I might be a little old-school on this one. Curious what you think — come argue with me in the Facebook group.
Beyond the Pitch The Careers in Soccer Nobody Tells Your Kid About (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Inside Scoop, I sit down with Carlos Mojica— author of Goal: Awesome Soccer Stories and Fun Facts for Kids — to talk about career paths in soccer that don't involve playing on the field. Carlos and I dig into his path from El Salvador into a career in sports communications, what a Venue Press Officer actually does day-to-day, and the advice he'd give students who want to break into the sports industry. We also announce a free giveaway of an autographed copy of Carlos's boo
Why 'I Can't Train My Own Kid' Is the Excuse I Don't Buy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every parent has said it at some point: "I'm not qualified to train my own kid." I used to believe that too — until I built a system that changed everything about how my sons train, and how I show up for them.

If you've ever told yourself you're not the right person to help you
How I Judge a Youth Team in 30 Seconds · I Don't Watch the Score (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When I watch my kid's team, I'm not really watching the score. I'm watching whether they can create goal-scoring opportunities consistently — inside a game model and a style of play, rather than by accident. Defensively, I want to see them organized, compact, and aggressive, winning the ball back quickly. Going forward, I want to see them progress the ball out from the back with patience and style, connect through the midfield, and change the point of attack to get it wide. That's the difference
The Hidden Scoreboard No One's Watching (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Winning and losing tells you almost nothing about whether your kid's team is actually developing. I break down the real signals I look for after a decade of watching games as a soccer parent — the ones most people miss entirely. I share a personal moment from one of my son's games that changed how I see all of this. And I tease a new series I'm planning, bringing coaches on to go even deeper.
