[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It can be very competitive. Just depends on the school.

However, your kid will change and grow over senior year. My son decided in 10th to drop recruiting as he wanted a better school academically than he could play for as a recruit. At the end of that year, he dropped from ECNL to ECRL because we didn’t need to be flying to San Diego and such if he wasn’t looking to be recruited.

Then, He talked about going for a club team a lot, but once accepted to college and seeing all there was to offer in terms of activities, even club seemed like a bigger commitment than he wanted- you are still practicing 2-3 days and a game on weekends including possible regional travel. He decided it was too much of a commitment with other things he wants to do like join a fraternity, career oriented clubs, working out, etc. plus studying. He’s going to a T20 university.

He stayed on his club team through end of senior year, and played all 4 years of high school soccer, and it was a great experience and taught him so many valuable lessons. Maybe he will change his mind once at school but he seems to have expanded his interests a lot beyond soccer.
