[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A) i) the top players and teams are not playing each other; ii) parents are uneducated on development so coaches have alot of pressure on wins even if they believe in development; iii) 2% of club focus on the technical fundamentals and off-ball movement needed to progressive to higher levels. The lack of technical ability at MLS Next and ECNL is a little shocking IMHO. B) i) The market determines the price; ii) coaches should be paid their worth; iii) EDP Futures @ Soccerplex does it the best with all teams at one location every week and no posted scored. Yes, parents gossip and know the scores but so what. If you mention an unposted score to me at a cocktail party, I literally might backslap you. These shallow parents should not be the norm like they are here. C) Yes - Mirror Achilles approach to early develop less the cursing and antics which keeps them boutique. D) Yes. This is where education is involved. Parents will have to understand the results don't matter before U15 but that is where you will struggle. I am not sure it can work in the DMV as the parental base is simply wealthy parents who are driven by ego. Lookup the DCU string. It has gone silent since someone called them out on this. People here use soccer to get into Princeton vs the love of the game. Most don't understand D1 is like 4th-6th division in most European countries and not really "successful" in real football terms. I hope you're different. I hope it works out! [/quote] Since we are all in America where a kid making D1 soccer is a marker of success, how can someone say its not a successful achievement because of whats happening in another country? Real here is real here.[/quote]
