Quality of play should be an add on and not replace results in my opinion.

Ball size 4 for u13 is good

QoP should absolutely be the priority benchmark for U13 & U14—it directly addresses the one thing kids in this age bracket have no control over—puberty.

Many teams stack their attack with players that are 5’9-6+ feet tall, who can shell opposing teams from 20 yards outside the box, or muscle their way past a 4’10, 5’1, etc. midi or defender. That advantage melts away by the time U15/U16 rolls around.

So why give credit for what amounts to kids that have tall parents?

That but also the kid that at 12 is at the same size as his parents and won't grow anymore while other will surpass that hight and size but only later.

The smaller kid will adapt and be a better player by U16 or they quit.

With cutting-edge innovations like QoP-based Tables, strategically coned-off endlines to supercharge intensity, and size 4 balls optimized for skill and speed, MLS NEXT™ is breaking barriers and redefining the future of the sport.

No one has cracked the code for producing elite professional players—until now. The NEXT generation starts here! 🔥⚽

If ur being sarcastic u doing a poor job. Otherwise it’s wild how ignorant you are. Literally all of Europe and South America do this for a living. Ironically, it’s in those places where YOUTH soccer ain’t a business and only the truly best get to enter the system and then get developed by experts. I’d sit this one out, if I were you.

Bonus point: explain how a teenager like Lamine Yamal already has a national European cup with Spain and a few domestic titles before turning 18 if “ No one in the world has figured out how to develop high level professional players”

Dude lamine is a prodigy in a million. Watch his u12 videos he was already above and just kept that way never slowing down in terms of skills and performance.

Where are the US prodigies?

Freddy Adu was our last prodigy, right? How’d his career pan out? Asking for a friend.

By the way, Lamine’s training from U10 until he hit the first team comprised of 5-6 days/weekly.

And no, it wasn’t just 90 mins each time. Of those 5-6 days 3 or 4 of them were double sessions. 2 hrs in the day and another 2 hrs after school.

After his club training guess what… probably the most important piece of the puzzle… take a deep breath for this one ok? he played in the streets, the town plaza, and in school yard during recess with his buddies and ZERO adult joysticking.

Sit down and learn for once.

OK. so he joined is first club when he was 4 and joined Barcelona (La Masia) at 7. And trained 5-6 days a week with multiple double sessions. But it was "ZERO adult joysticking" in the other times that made him the player he is. Talk about slanting a narrative to what you want to see.

That is directly because Freddy was rated on wins and losses when he was U13/14.

The real prodigies that would have made it did not have the benefit of QoS rankings to highlight them for scouts.

Praying to God you’re not a soccer “coach” or director in DMV. Your post oozes stupidity everywhere.

That's what makes your first post so funny. It is so internally contradictory to be laughable and then you insult an imagined reader. You literally said, with authority, that he's been training with professional coaches since he was a young kid and sometimes for 4 hrs a day, 5 to 6 times a week and then said "the most important piece of the puzzle" was "play[ing] in school yard during recess with his buddies." It's hilarious. So keep it up and tell us how kicking the ball around at lunch is the "most important" thing to turn a player into Lamine Yamal.

Thanks for confirming what non-US footballers know. Surely your Johnny or Larla is doing wonders with their “professional” clipboard american coach 😂

For those whose kids play defense, do you think Taka is capturing their highlights or are attacking positions being favored?

It measures 6 facets of the game equally.

Ball size 4 for u13 is good

Whats the value of scoreboard results in your opinion?

Isn't scoring more than the opponent the objective of the team?

Not in youth development. The US's culture upon winning the scoreboard is hurting our long-term prospects of developing talent. SYC routinely wins during the Puberty Wars in early MLS Next play but then gets played around in the late teenage years because the kids were not focused on ball mastery during those important years between 10-14 and don't know how to fundamentally play at a high level with the ball.

Isn't it a matter of priority? It is not all or nothing.

Over a period of time say 1 year:
Team wins and play well = GOOD
Team loses and play well = GOOD
Team wins and play bad = NOT GOOD
Team loses and play bad = NOT GOOD

Your comment about SYC is a thing of the past the upcoming u littles at SYC kids are athletic and have skills.

SYC kids always have skills but what’s the point if they’re not being challenged to use those skills under pressure? What are huge talented kids doing playing against a team that they tower over and can outrun in a few strides? It’s really sad to watch sometimes.
