Hey guys.

I don’t have any children but we were having a discussion at work about how and what would enable a child the best chance to go pro (if they chose to)

Here is what we came up with but I’d be interested to hear peoples feedback (good or bad)

At age 4 enrol in futsal and encourage playing in the backyard with the ball as much as possible. Also enrol into little kickers program

At age 5 enrol into outdoor football and play futsal 1-2 times a week on days the child is not training. Choose a local club with a reputation for good development

Futsal played year round (summer months too) in summer enrol in a summer football comp.

Encourage the child to play outside as much as possible

When the child hits teenage years stop futsal and concentrate on outdoor, again encouraging the child to play out side
