[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's downfall was when adults saw they could make a 'business' out of it. The travel system is horrible for individual development and designed for parents with deep pockets. [/quote] And feeding on parents who think it's the key to college scholarship money. We're fully immersed in it with DS playing high-level travel soccer and it's amazing how many parents think college coaches are going to be calling them. It's not how it works, but sitting on the sidelines listening to them talk about it is at times more entertaining than the soccer play on the field.[/quote] Oh I agree. That’s why they get away with what they do. Girls have a much greater chance ,,, but boys it’s pennies if it’s anything...and not always a well-regarded academic school. 99% playing will get nothing.[/quote]
