[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One major difference between England and the US is the accessibility of professional academies. In England, it's much easier to join a professional academy, and if selected, participation is free. These academies offer a comprehensive 4-5 day-a-week schedule of training and matches, with the added benefit of playing against equally skilled or even stronger opponents. For example, London alone is home to over 10 professional academies.[/quote] You get signed to professional academies at 8 and 9 years old in England after being scouted. You don't just join It is hard as hell to get in at U8 and only gets harder each above age group to join/stay.[/quote]
