It is important as a coach that you subscribe to a philosophy that acknowledges the role of athletics in developing children as complete individuals.
You will find U-10 players willing to join in games that require a moderate degree of strategy.
Remember that kids will develop differently, both physically and socially. You must take the needs of ALL of your players into consideration.
