Quote:
Let's focus on Midfield play. To be a top midfielder you must possess the whole package. Don't focus too much on any individual aspect of the game. Here's some things to work on: - Shooting - During practice, focus about 90% of the time shooting on the run. That is really all you will use in a game.
- Face-off - Don't rely on the other guy all the time. Learn some moves and practice!
- Defense - Learn what it takes to be an individual "D" guy both on and off ball. Also learn the concepts of good team defense.
- Conditioning/Stamina - As a middie you need to be the most well conditioned player on the field. How else are you going to make a big stop on D and than go to the O side and stick a corner?
- Ground Balls - We all know they win games! Be relentless, and learn the proper technique.
- Between the Restraining lines- Just be smart, move the ball to a player in front of you and don't sell out. That means don't go for a check and get beat in this part of the field, your better off getting in the hole preventing unsettled play.
