[quote=Anonymous]take a look at your clubs age groups. Notice with each passing year the number of teams per age group gets smaller and smaller. By the time you get to the U16 age group most clubs have 1 maybe 2 teams. By the time U18 most clubs have 1. I said most I know some huge clubs will challenge that but its because they are huge not because they are doing something amazing there and keeping kids interested. The dream of being a pro wanes with each passing year and reality strikes. Add in new interests and they can now decide on their own what they want to do rather than follow their parents direction. In short, around U13/14 I would say a drop off happens and then it accelerates each year after[/quote]
