[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is spot on. I’m in Minnesota and the u13 player identified for US soccer was a bulldog street fighter who intimidated the heck out of same age girls and as a result scored goals. Her soccer iq is minimal at best but year after year she was the chosen one. She parlayed that to a spot on University of Minnesota where she can’t compete against other power 5 conference teams, doesn’t score or assist on goals and now heading into senior year leads a team destined for the bottom of the big 10. [/quote] US Soccer Talent ID camps only occur for u13 u14 and u15. By telling clubs to send the same players year after year it implies that US Soccer believes that the best possible players America can provide are all identifiable at u13. I guess if the funnel is wide enough US Soccer can field top teams. But it just seems wrong to pick winners and losers at 12 years old.[/quote]
