There's been extensive discussion of this on coaching sites. My opinion and that of at least some others is that, while this method may be appropriate at higher levels, we'll never teach it on all-comers children's teams. The reason is that while the method should work well under best conditions, it isn't forgiving of those who don't have as much practice time and face much bigger differences in size and athletic ability. Under the circumstances we coach at, this method would actually increase head, and possibly neck, injuries.
