The important thing is to never give up. Going into high school I had one of the weakest kicks around, I could hardly play a ball 20 to 30 yd. I was a bench former my whole time in high school didn't make JV or varsity my junior year, and rode the bench my whole senior year. A year and a half later I have the strongest kick of anyone I know, I was training with a professional coach, and I was offered a professional contract in another country. You would be surprised at how much things can change and how quickly.

[@coachnikola]

This is an impressive piece of work from Cristal Palace youth academy. Me as a grassroots coach,I’m enjoying each moment of those episodes. One day,I hope to be there,learn from them and exchange experiences. I’m driven by seeing how their academy is well organized,with all those coaches and experts who is working hard on daily bases,focusing on all small details to help out their players.

@@Cool-yw3ev it can also be a good thing because you have to learn to rely strictly on skill because your speed is gone until you grow into your new height. Once that speed comes back you will be a beast so do not let it discourage you or give up, not saying this to you so much but to anyone who reads this that is having the growth spurt awkward body problem. Stick with it, once you get your speed and quick feet back everything will change. I didn’t stick with it because of outside distractions, which was a huge mistake on my part.

Delusional young player with an overbearing stage mother asking potential agents if they are going to get him a sponsorship, but the potential agents had the perfect response. “If you perform on the pitch then those things will come”. Young players need to focus 100% on improving their play and along with their overbearing parents not get distracted with the dream of getting paid before they have made it!

[@zaydzayyad8029]

Even if Leon goes pro she is the type of mother to become an agent for her son and keep asking clubs for more money and ruin his career

[@TheCpadron19]

I played select baseball since i was 9, but this seems like a little overkill for kids. I wonder how many of them burn out because the game isn't fun for them anymore. I can understand grinding this hard once you're a teen, but this seems like it's more for the parents, than the kids.

[@owondrr9710]

I don’t like Leon mom but she honestly smart

[@LordFingers1]

i feel sorry for Leon, his mom will take the joy and love out of the game with her nonsense. one of the reasons messi, ronaldo, zlatan, zindane were so good is they never lost their love for the game, their internal fire burned strong.

[@joshuabrown2134]

Leons mom is smart, yaw just mad... if she let him run the streets and be unproductive youd be crying in the future once he becomes incarcerated. at least there channeling his energy into something positive.. you guys just like her because she a caucus single mom with a mixed son. get over it... and his confidence is immense. if he does fail yea it'll be hard, but im not rooting for him to fail just cause i dont see or agree with how him and his mom think and move.. some weird hateful people out here. and from what i see in his mom if he does fail shes not going to allow him to be a failure period.. 2+2=4 and 3+1=4. theres different ways to the same solution. get over it.. and with kamall thats palaces fault. get him the gym and work on his flexibility especially his hip area. he need to do squats, have him copy wembys routine. theres no excuse for that and its crazy how there putting the blame on a child and his growth spurt. where are the trainers. why are they not in the gym...

[@wanr5701]

The thing is, even in my country kids see sports (and entertainment) as a way to get rich quick and having easy life without having high level of academic qualifications. Even today, those that play everyman's sport (like football) mostly come from poor and uneducated background, often occupy the last places in the academic exams in schools. Those that play niche sports on the other hand mostly came from a more educated background and often perform well in exams. Not surprising that the former group tend to struggle in adult life and depending heavily on the sports to make the ends meet. The latter group have higher dropout rate in sports, yet they are better off in their adult life because academic qualifications means more life options for them. Personally this is the very reason why I hate and totally oppose professionalism of sports; the moment the sports got profesionalised it open the floodgates of people who play because of the money and not for the love of the sport.
