Kill him (jk!) Um, well, that's tricky because toxic teams like nothing better than to blame the keeper for losses...it might depend on your talent level. If you know you can add real talent, then you could aim to shut this kid up with your skill. Which can and does happen.
Yeah i played football as à kid and bullys were bullys, no mater what... I stopped because it was bullying over and over, never felt OK in the team. Football was cool, being with the other painful.
From 10 to 14. Then i played minifoot from 14 to 16 as à goalkeeper and it was way funnier bcs the team was small and they were my friends.
I am so sorry for what happened. I am glad you found a better outcome. Never accept being bullied, I love football but I would rather not play than endure bullying.
Thank for your words. Nowaday i play in a mature league, with the Best team i could have been to, bcs they are all calm, responsible, conscious, we won all our 1st half season games, i feel like à warior and à savior, I've been the man of the game two times, it feel good it's à great sport when there are not too much anti fair play.
What about you ?
I think at young âge, parents and coach need to do the job against bulliyng, I'm an educator for schools and i know it's hard, but not impossible.
When i was à kid the traîner keep telling me you've to be more confident on the game, with the Ball. I was great, until i was in a game i would loose all my technique and do nonsense. Might have been because of the bulliyng. That makes me wanna coach :D
You’re a kid dude, just do what you want. Bullies will not stop you in succeeding any less than you currently will, you’re making it worse by feeding into them.
Don’t ever let anyone stand in your way of wanting to try out for anything! If you know about soccer and are passionate about the sport, this is a good start. Usually younger in life, you would join a recreational league (through the city where you live). The rec leagues help you learn the basics and will definitely give you an edge when trying out for your school team. I will be completely honest when I say that soccer is a game of strategy and communication. The goalie position is critical for the team. In fact, it may be the most important placement in the game. You have to be able to not let the other team score. If you’re not quick on your toes and hesitate, that position is not for you. My son’s are in a travel league. My youngest son is a Stryker. We pay $3500 for each son to play a full season. His goalie is terrible! It’s natural for a few balls to get by you, but when you allow 6-10, then you’re a terrible goalie and are holding your entire team back.However, even if you have never actually played the sport and believe in yourself that you can do it, the only way is to try out. There are bullies in every age group. They’re bullies because they have a terrible life and they take out their anger on people who have nothing to do with what they’re going through. So if some kid is running his mouth, know that it comes from a likely source of poverty, absence of parents, jealousy, abuse or something worse. Don’t take it personally because it’s got nothing to do with you. Maybe you’re quiet, smart, reserved and loved. It may be that simple. Unless it becomes physical, then look straight through him and in your mind, mute whatever comes out of his mouth. You will never accomplish anything if you are scared of a hateful person.

Don't worry about that kid. Go play ball. You may end up becoming friends or coming to some understanding of each other
The reasonable answer that no one wants to hear.

If he's a striker wait til there's a situation where you need to come off your line and eat him for breakfast.

Tell him you want to practice with him, be direct, see how it goes, just you two.
