[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For public high schools, I have no idea.

But for private schools, there def are kids who are in certain schools bc of a financial package that includes playing on the team. [/quote]

And plenty with rich parents not scholarship playing too. It’s easy for them to bend the rules. [/quote]

The exception is not limited to scholarship students; it also includes students who might not have been good enough to be accepted into the private school they attend but were accepted based at least in part on their athletic skill and expectation they would play for the school. [/quote]

There are some kids who have worked out a deal with clubs and playing public school soccer in the fall and MLS Next in the spring. They are paying for the full year of MLS Next. Here's what that means:
1. MLS Next, or at least the clubs in the league, realize they can't own a kid.
2. Pay for play is more alive now than ever.  Got the cash?  We'll save your spot.
3. MLS Next must not be the pathway to pro that they claim to be. 
4. See 3 - Many ECNL teams are just as good or better than MLSN. 
5. Patch on sleeve chasing is just that. [/quote]

Your #1 is quite stupid.
The kid voluntarily tried their best to join a league/team that everyone knows has stipulations against playing low level HS soccer.
So how is the league or team trying to own sense of entitlement and privilege junior?

#2 just as dumb.
Which MLS Next team needs to save a spot when all ECNL kids would love to join the Bigger Better league? They can fill the roster easily.

#3-#5 is just your insecurities whining[/quote]
