In today's quick rundown, I shared a simple algorithm I used to improve decision-making in my sons' soccer games. The key: if they get the ball in the middle, spaces are likely wide, and vice versa. This approach helped them make faster decisions, turning feedback into a positive cycle.

I also touched on how I turned a portion of the game into a structured passing pattern, creating more 2v1 situations. Decision-making involves perceiving, processing, and acting, followed by self-assessment. While ideal for a more extended period, my goal was to provide a quick reference point during the short recreational season.

Stay tuned for the video show, where I'll delve deeper into these concepts. Neil Crawford, Anytime Soccer Training, signing off!
