[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS is a top 1/3 bucket U13B player on a mid ECNL RL team in the DMV area. I'm sure he will eventually make his HS team, likely to start too. What's next? Any shot at playing at a NCAA D3 schools that's also decent with academics? He also excels in 2 other travel sports so eventually we need to cut to just 1 travel sport.

I feel this is a question a parent who has an older DS can answer easily.

I grew up in this area and played NCSL D1 through half of HS. Then I just went to college and played some club sports. [/quote]

At U13 nothing is off the table as far as his next steps, D1 is going to be hard because there is a lot of competition for international players.[/quote]

Same in D3. Our RL kid has similar goals...a good academinc D3. I've been looking at a lot of rosters online, and about a third of the kids are international. 
Don't assume D3 will be a given for any RL kid. [/quote]

No one said anything about D3 will be given for any RL kids - it has to be earned and taken

it all depends on what school you're looking at...Shenandoah and Virginia Wesleyan have 1 combined international players between the two rosters and are primarily VA based players from non ECNL/MLSNext (FCV, PWSI, FC Richmond) clubs, but there is colleges like Roanoke that is 50/50 international and only have 3~4 VA based players with the rest from out of state.[/quote]
