High School Soccer is the new teen recreational soccer.

Just wanted to comment that HS soccer is rec soccer.

That's all...

Can we all just assure the rabid "hIgH sChOoL sOcCeR iS rEc SocCeR MlS NeXt Is tHe BeSt!" poster that their kid will get a break on college tuition and they won't be on the hook for full pay so they can go back to their desk and get off of DCUM?

Players at our school went to mls next practices and were held accountable (didn’t start) in next HS game.

MlSNext players that go to HS instead of MLSNext practices sit the bench at our club. These are ones with “waivers”- if they found out you were playing w/out one you’d get the boot because it can hurt the club.

Exactly correct what idiot would ever prioritize HS soccer over Club?

The ones that don’t get playing time on mlsnext team.

It doesn't matter if it's low level soccer private or public. Please shut up and go away. My kids all played high school by choice. They play Division 1 soccer because they are good at soccer and trained on their own during the high school season and during the club season. They (yes more than 1) got recruited and accepted scholarships. They loved high school soccer with their friends. I'm sure you are a parent of a kid that wants to be good, you pay a ton of money for private training and you rip high school soccer to everyone in town and on this anonymous chat. None of anything that you are talking about matters...you are clueless. Your kid has to be super fit, fast and TALENTED. The kid has to want it bad, not you the parent. They have to be one of the best players on the field at a travel showcase or playoffs when it matters. And by the way, once they get to college it's brutal, physical and very hard to find a starting spot or be a high level sub. So for all you parents working behind the scenes to use influence to get your kid on a roster at a good college program/school...they will never play one meaningful minute. If your SON is getting recruited and getting scholarship money then your SON is amazing player. Boys soccer is impossible, you have to be GREAT. If your daughter is getting recruited and scholarship money that is amazing and they will have a chance to play...but it's not easy. These are the facts.

That's a lot of word vomit.

HS soccer is rec soccer

Exactly. Your kid has no chance.

No chance at what? Playing on a rec team?

Trust me private schools throw free tuition at Next players left and right.

Why?? Ha. Our private could put traffic cones on the field instead of players and do just as well. There literally is zero competition in the conference. They are playing teeny tiny schools with kids that play soccer as an afterthought—2nd or 3rd sport. Oh—undefeated again. Wow. Whoopty-doo

Who's going to start new threads now? They been censured finally, hooray!

I guess we'll just have to hear them screaming from sidelines of ECNL games, the boardrooms of MoCo, and the links of Bethesda. So outed by Jeff LMAO!!!

Umm ok? Not sure why we keep coming back to this but ok.

Also so what? High end kids still want to play (even when against their best interest) keeping it from becoming fully rec-like.

Private schools give free tuition to top players so later on when the top player goes pro private schools can claim that xyz superstar played for their school.

Wins aren't important because high school soccer sucks so bad. But guaranteed wins are something parents can brag about at the country club.

HS soccer = Fun
Rec soccer = Fun
Therefore HS Soccer = Rec Soccer

Guys did you know that high school soccer is like rec soccer?

Only MLS Next is good.

High school is pathetic.

If your kid plays high school soccer they are a loser and so are you if you think that's an accomplishment.

I have anger issues and at my kid's last MLS next game I slammed my Yeti full of cold brew to the ground and it stained my Hokas.

No kids who play high school soccer ever play in college. So enjoy your full pay experience!

My wife has no life beyond driving carpool and the highlight of my life was when I dated a cheerleader in high school for 2 months. My wife didn't make the cheerleading squad, but she makes very good crock pot meals now, which we eat a lot of because with MLS next games and practices all the time we never eat at the same time. I have three kids which you would know if you saw the back of my limited edition Tahoe because it has two big stick figures and three small ones on the rear windshield.

High school soccer is terrible. Just like rec.

Not really sure what to make of this post. It kind of sounds like sarcasm but maybe not.

I do agree with you that high school soccer is terrible.

If you can't tell, you should probably give up on reading things in general

Rec sports are really in this guy's head. Wonder which hs coach touched him or cut his kid?
