An extremely small selection! |
So how is he going to choose his boots from the vast array of choices?
What colour and make?
Does he need more than one pair for different types of ground, Soft-ground (SG), Hard ground (HG) or Firm Ground (FG)?
If he goes for Adidas, does he need Speed, Energy, Control or Heritage boots?
Or what about Nike's range? Speed, Attack, Control, Touch or Accuracy?
Shall we pay more to have his initials on them?
What do all these boots do? As the tutor on my coaching course said, "They're not going to make you play any better". At 17/18 I wore red boots. Why, because I wanted to stand out from the crowd. And being the only one in the team not wearing black boots, I certainly did to the opposition! In fact, you could say I became a target. Now, you wouldn't stand out from the others unless you wore these
So the conclusion I have come to is that my son needs a pair of boots that fit well, are comfortable and are going to last until his feet grow.....again! All I have to do now is to make him think the same!
