I play Soccer and i am a Coach.liz749 wrote:Is it typical for your families to have the kids wear tennis shoes instead of cleats in soccer? Maybe when they are really small tennis shoes don't matter but I always remember having a pair of soccer cleats when I was little...even if they were just from a second hand sports store? Genuinely wondering lol is this Ruby being cheap just getting cleats now or is that typical?
Also eve has growled/snapped at her siblings two days in a row now when they were sort of giggling at her. Ruby always snips at the kids to stop laughing but never tried to correct Eve's angry outburst!

The only Time anyone ever wears tennis shoes/running shoes/... is when they come in for the first time to see if they like it. And sometimes not even then.
Even the youngest Kids we have wear Cleats because actually playing Soccer (and not just kicking a ball around in your Backyard) without proper shoes is just stupid. There is a reason Cleats do not have a "normal" sole.
"Soccer Shorts" on the other Hand are kind of pointless, especially for little Kids. We have seen her Kids wear workout clothes alot and those wouldve been just fine!
