[quote=Anonymous]Yep, the clubs/leagues/teams are simply a venue. None of those 6 options will actually train your kid, even the DCSC blue team, which would be the 'highest level' on that list. This is unbelievable to parents who are paying $3000+ per year at the younger ages of travel. Then the expenses keep getting higher.... And even by high school, your kid needs to be doing cone work / ball work on their own, because they will get very few touches in training, even on the top teams. Yet they will be averaging 8 hours a week driving to team training and matches (and that is the average, it will be higher half the time!) Coaches will be evaluating your kid constantly, but not actually teaching them. Suddenly rec soccer starts to sound pretty great.[/quote]
