[quote=Anonymous][quote=SoccerWatcher]I have seen videos posted about the Next Star trainings. Have called the number on their website as well as emailed with zero response. Took my 16 year old DD who plays for a local ECNL team to one of the trainings but seemed like the kids were mostly younger so left. Next day stopped by the Pro/College group and it looked like 20 year old male college players. I've seen HS age girls in some of the videos. Can anyone in the know comment on this program and which may be best suited for a U17 ECNL player?[/quote]

Many girls are paired with younger boys for practices in general because of the skill difference. At our club we have a high level ecnl player (wont name the club) that practices with our boys team 1-2 years below. Just because the other kids look younger or smaller, you'll may find their skill level in many areas it's at or above your daughter.  We recently trained in this situation and although the girl could shoot, her cone technique and touches with passing needed work.  Much of nextstar is individual technique training in a group environment with like minded kids for motivation but ultimately she is only competing against herself, not the other kids that are there. (This is what I tell my son when they are much older than him). [/quote]
