[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how people rail against a system they continue to help prop up. “We hate it but we will all continue to do it”. I’m starting to think people don’t actually hate it as much as they say they do. [/quote]

Those of us with the opportunity to move out do. I know 4 families with European passports that are going back there to give their kids a genuine football experience albeit making a bit less money in their professional careers than here. But, alas, advances of dual passport. Would suck if you wanted to do this move but can’t because you only have 1 passport. God bless you. [/quote]

What a crock of BS, you know 4 families leaving US for kids soccer….lol[/quote]

All from the same cul-de-sac [/quote]

My son has offers for trials from several top clubs in Catalonia.  One club plays in the same division as Barca A.  Two others play in the same club as Barca B.  He trained at FC Barcelona for a week in November.  His coach there requested his CV and highlight video and referred him to a few select clubs that he thinks fit his playing style and strengths.  All of the clubs he referred him to have oferres trials in the spring.  He also introduced us to an agent at You First for potential referrals to clubs in other parts of Spain.

It happens.

We would absolutely move to Barcelona if he got an offer from a top club. (There are FIFA rules to follow, however.)[/quote]

Could you please tell us an age group?  I was told starting u14 almost impossible to get to a divisio honor team? What you can tell about level and difference with dmv soccer?[/quote]

U15

You basically need to have a trusted person refer you to have any chance of receiving an offer for a trial at a divisio honor club.  Most of those clubs take players from the second or third division.  All of those matches are heavily scouted by the clubs in the top category as well as La Liga clubs.

Most or all of the clubs in divisio honor play a version of Catalan soccer - highly technical, highly tactical, smart, fast and free flowing soccer.

We have nothing like that anywhere in the U.S.  we live in Texas.  Very few teams here play like the Catalan clubs.  It’s very physical here for the most part.  A lot of the top teams in ECNL play second ball football and win by being “tougher, more physical, and faster”.[/quote]

Now I am curious.  You spend time here or did Google lead you to us?[/quote]

My kid is late December birth day.  With the change away from birth year, I googled the change and this forum was the first one that popped up.[/quote]
