[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no problem when someone says that a particular Barca team lost by a big score in a tournament, but there is no need to call kids "second tier players."  Yes, there are tiers in teams within clubs, but laying on a B team does not necessarily mean that a player is a second tier quality, especially at U10 when there is a lot of time to develop.  Further, depending on a club, some B teams  are very strong.  Loudoun 07 girls B team, for example, is ranked No. 5 in Virginia.  Arlington's 08 girls B team is ranked no. 8 in Virginia.  Based on tournament results, this particular Barca team, which is their A team, does not appear to be strong, but this is U10, so they have plenty of time to improve.  [/quote]

umm yes it does... Your kids may improve and make it to A team , but if he's on the the B team now he is 2nd tier ie not as good, less talented, not elite. On bright side your kid can work hard and move up , but as of now he is 2nd tier,[/quote]

Youth talent assessment is subjective.  Griezmann was not considered elite and was rejected by every French academy he tried out for as a kid.  Now his is a key player on French national team and the World Cup winner.    [/quote]

He's one of many now great FIFA players that followed that same path----totally ignored and then a break out star as an older teen/young adult.

Child prodigies and the ones we love in the youth ranks rarely pan out.  It's getting the kids that continually get overlooked in their youth that we need to keep motivating to stick with it.  That is where the hope lies.[/quote]
