The classic Pyramid formation
Ever find yourself on the sideline (or on the field for that matter) and hear something like this?
"Uh, yeah, they're playing a 4-4-2, with attacking center mids in a diamond formation. But you know, our 4-3-3 is way better given the speed we have up front."
Huh? What the heck does that mean? Who knows? Well, it turns out, our coaches and our players do.
But alot of us parents who didn't grow up with the game might be a little fuzzy on formations. Here's a great link on Wikipedia that explains the evolution of soccer formations from classic to modern times with accompanying diagrams for each of them.
