[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think it's possible to make the jump from non-travel in 9th grade to playing in college in this era of soccer. My impression is that the only way to play in college is to be playing ECNL or DA. My 2006 daughter is a top player on the B team of a club with many team levels and ECNL as the top team. This year (for U14) the ECNL team took 5 new players and every one came as a transfer from another ECNL or DA team. My impression that even for kids playing at a high level, it's difficult to move to ECNL/DA at U14 or later---let alone to play in college. The level of play is just much better and it's not possible to catch up. [/quote] Only in the closed system we have that 'marks' players from their club team. Alex Morgan was coached by her dad while heavily playing basketball and other sports. She didn't start travel/Club soccer until age 14.[/quote]
