[quote=Anonymous]I agree that the tournaments take away from the focus of a regular season game. But I disagree that this is what is ruining youth soccer. The pursuit of MLSN/ECNL/GA is a good thing. But there are too many of them to where it is too accessible for many kids simply by changing clubs. This takes away from the elite status of those highest tiers. Because it is so accessible to so many, it is more disappointing to both the player and the parent when a kid does not make it onto one of those teams. This is why so many kids quit soccer altogether. [/quote]
