Author Description There he was, a soccer player who had difficulties scoring. He wanted to be the best on the field but lacked the confidence and know-how to make his goal a reality. Every day, he dreamed about improving, but the average coaching and lack of knowledge only left him feeling alone and like he couldn't attain his goal. He was a quiet player and his performance often went unnoticed.<br /><br />This all changed after his junior year on the Varsity soccer team of one of the largest high schools in the state. During the team and parent banquet at the end of the season, his coach decided to say something nice about each player. When it came to his turn to receive praise, the only thing that could be said was that he had scored two goals that season even though it was against a lousy team, so they didn't really count...<br /><br />It was a very painful statement that after the 20+ game season, all that could be said of his efforts were two goals that didn't count. Since that moment, he has been forever changed considering one of his greatest fears came true; he was called out in front of his family and friends. Because of that, he got serious. With a new soccer mentor, he focused on the training necessary to obtain the skills to build his confidence and become the goal scorer he always dreamed of being. The next season, after just a few months, he found himself moved up to the starting position of center midfielder and scored his first goal of the 26-game season in only the third game.<br /><br />He kept up the additional training led by a proven goal scorer to build his knowledge. Fast forward to present day and as a result of the work and focus on the necessary skills, he figured out how to become a goal scorer who averages about two goals and an assist per game, all because of an increase in his understanding of how to play soccer. He was able to take his game from bench-warmer who got called out in front of everybody to the most confident player on the field.<br /><br />Visit <a target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" href="http://www.UnderstandSoccer.com">www.UnderstandSoccer.com</a> for more details.<br /><br />Dylan Joseph is devoted to the world's favorite game: SOCCER.
