You would be surprised how many times Iโ€™ve had this conversation ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ Not all AAU programs are equal. There are some good ones out there for sure. I benefited as a player by playing for a club. But thenโ€ฆ There are some bad ones. And with the bad ones comes a lot of wasted time, money and effort. Empty promises when it comes to development and exposure to college coaches. Some kids on these teams canโ€™t make 10 free throws in a row or dribble with their weak hand but we have them playing 80 games a summer expecting it to magically improve. Then they go back to their HS Coaches as the same player they were the year before but expecting different results. Now kids should make more time for their own skill work as well but some of these programs require 4-8 hours a week at their โ€œpracticesโ€ plus travel and games every weekendโ€ฆ. Have you seen some of these AAU practices? Skill development is non existent in a lot of these. But isnโ€™t the point to make the kids better? Just get better every summer and have a great high school season then worry about getting recruited. Some of these kids are on their JV teams expecting to get scholarship offers ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ There are bad trainers and bad coaches out there as well. I understand that. This is just my perspective and experience with the kids that have been in the gym with me over the last 7 years.

A friend of mine shared this clip containing insulting comments about Somali culture, especially uncles. In the clip, the men argue that Somali culture needs to change, describing it as retarded. Their argument rests on three points: (1) Somali uncles regard taking children to a park as embarrassingโ€”one states, "a grown uncle going to the park and taking the kids out to play football is embarrassing, man." An Egyptian man, pictured with his father and hero imam brother in another setting, interjects: "And they're chilling in a cafรฉ having a tea." The core argument is that, you will not see Somali uncles taking children to the park. (2) These uncles, they uttered, instead pass the time in cafรฉs discussing tribalism. (3) They have passed the troubles of the homeland down to us, the next generation here. Before I address the flaws in their argument, one must contextualise the following observations. First, these men are in their mid-to-late forties. Hence, their metaphorical uncles would be in their seventies. With that in mind, two aspects stand out; one factor explains their rationale and my two cents for them: The aspects: (1) A seventy-year-old uncle is not normally expected to play football with children. (2) It is they themselvesโ€”the speakersโ€”to whom their own argument actually applies. Making sense of their rationale: an inferiority complex. Somalis have a saying: naftiisa daryeela tukale ku daraโ€”which may be translated as, โ€˜those who look after themselves are able to extend help to others.โ€™ My two cents, therefore, is as follows: prioritise your own well-being, and recognise that being overweight is no longer in vogue.
