[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This new system is designed to train American parents.  Too many talented US players are involved in “win at all costs” programs and do not technically develop during the crucial foundation phase.  The clubs cater to the parents.  The parents wants W’s and they follow the leaderboard.  Change the leaderboard, hopefully we eventually we change player development habits.

Under this new system, leaderboard tracking American parents have to actually learn more about the game to influence the standings.  If they want the bragging rights at the water cooler, they need to encourage their child to play a better brand of football.

The amount of people who track standings and wins and losses is the reason why we are not winning the long-term football game as a country.  SYC could eventually change, but their style wins IG and sends kids DCU, but those kids will eventually get run around by kids who might not be winning in the early phases but learning how to play under pressure and mastering the ball.

It is not a fix-all solution but a start to fix our football culture for the top talent in our country.[/quote]

Foundation phases are U6-U7, U8-U10
Development phases are U11-U13, U14-U15
Development/Performance U16-U18
Performance U18+[/quote]
