What can young players learn from watching college or pro games?

High-level soccer games are a great way for young players to learn about the game and develop role models. So many times I have coached young players who have never seen a professional game. Think about that.

How hard must it be to play a game you've never really seen played? A young player that is exposed to high-level soccer games consistently will learn how to play the game better, develop a passion for the game and understand more of how the game is played. They may even learn a thing or two that we coaches couldn't teach them!
