[quote=Anonymous]I think step 1 is to figure out how serious he is about the soccer part of the equation. Does he love the sport and dream of going pro, or is it just a fun activity for him? Something in between? Is he playing in a top league for a club with a strong history of college commitments? Have you talked to his coach about what level he sees your son playing at? When my son was 14 it was already clear to us that he was most likely going to be playing DI and for the best soccer school he could (his priority—the academics were ours). We also figured if he could succeed academically in middle school, there was no reason to think he couldn’t do the same in HS, and that proved correct. You need to understand his hopes and goals and have a sense of what is realistic before you start making lists and reaching out to coaches. [/quote]
