I coach boys 11U soccer and I'm trying to improve my team's confidence when cards are thrown. We don't get many but every once in a while an unlucky situation turns into a yellow. A few of my players get very upset when they are given a yellow and it's very hard for them to focus on the game afterwards. Normally I just ask them to let me know when they would like to go back in (so long as it wasn't an intentional foul).

Here's my idea:

I'll carry my cards during all practices. When a situation occurs that could justify a yellow/red card, I give it. "Punishments" will follow depending on severity of the foul. Anywhere from a few laps to time on the bench.

My philosophy:

I want to do this in such a way that they still understand the severity of the card but can stay focus on the game and their teammates. I don't want them to get too comfortable with the cards either.

My fear:

They won't take it seriously during practice or they get too comfortable getting carded and that leads to reckless games.

Thank you for reading and please share any advice you may have

Where does everyone watch from? I want to start watching so I'm curious what platform could be the best

I saw some videos about this off grid communication stuff and it caught my attention. I'm pretty "apocalypse anxious" so I decided to learn some more just in case. I bought a Wio tracker L1 pro that should get delivered in a couple days. What do I do? Not in the sense of how to use it physically but how to use it socially and in a day to day life. I see some pretty serious setups that people have and wonder what the purpose is. The community seems so nice and I'd love to join, I just feel there will be a lot to learn. Thank you for reading!

After Coop falls into the black hole, shouldn't hundreds of year go by on earth before he reached the tesseract. Was this answered? Sorry if I missed something obvious
