[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most pro soccer players from all over the world are elite athletes. Almost all travel soccer players from the USA are not elite athletes. So whether your kid is tall or short technically gifted or not. If he's not and elite athlete he's not even in the conversation. [/quote] My kid was running a sub-6 minute mile at age 10. Is that an elite athlete? What is an elite athlete? You don't need a 45 inch vertical jump to play soccer well. [/quote] Your son was not an elite athlete because he could run fast.[/quote] Oh, it's the lineman who weighs 450 lbs. and can just push a guy 5 yards, right? Idiotic American thinking. Running super fast does not make an athlete, but you know an athlete when you see one. And athleticism alone does not make a great soccer player. Bruce Jenner was a great athlete. Need I say more?[/quote]
