[quote=Anonymous]Awful. It's the feeder system here. The best kids don't even make it into our system in the first place. Pay-to-play and politics has been at the heart of US soccer and US Youth Club soccer for DECADES. I see it all around me. The same rosters. The kids with great potential in their youth walking off after the Clubs focus on 10-15 kids out of 100 kids in an age group. Ignore the rest. Coaches that understand very little about development---or if they do they need to show 'wins' from the earliest ages or get canned...so they go with the biggest, most physical kids before these kids have even hit puberty.[/quote]
