Going to nationals after 3 wins in 3 days. 👊 what a team.

I always get annoyed when discussions like this get reduced to “more rotation good, less rotation bad,” so I appreciated this tidbit about a strategy for effectively rotating players and what that might look like in practice.

I think my next post will have something to do with this. I always love finding these tidbits and manipulating them to see if I can apply them to one of my teams.

We have a Cole Palmer-y 10 on the college team I coach, who is comfortable drifting wide on either side, I wonder if she favors 1 side

I’m proud of what I’ve come up with so far. This has been a lot of fun to work on, I wonder if it’s fun for anyone to read?

Who knew inspiration would strike this quickly? I’m going to do a post about my college team after listening to Mike and Mike describe Wolves on the Double Pivot Podcast.

My first foray into an “online presence.” But I’m doing it for myself, not to try to gain a huge following or whatever. I want to learn more things about soccer that can be embarrassing for a coach to not know. Or to not have examined more deeply yet. And I want to share what I learn.
