I played soccer until sophomore year of high school when my hamstring gave out. I knew the coach of our local team well, and I was assigned to coach their U10 team. I had two kids on my team who were pretty overweight and I always made them train harder than the rest because I wanted all my players to stay in shape, even at the youth level. I always used to nag their parents into feeding them better diets, and thankfully, both lost weight.
