[quote=Anonymous][quote]Fitness can be raised to a fairly high standard by playing and practice. Highly skilled players are hard to come by. You can train for fitness and 95% of the kids will pass the fitness test. You can train for technical skills and soccer iq but only around 5% will become highly skilled.[/quote] No, they are not, at a large high school. My son is on Alexandria's white team (second to top), has played travel since he was 9 (so many years) and could definitely run that time and has good technical skills. However, he is not among the very very best players in Alexandria (since he is not on the red team). I have no confidence that he will make (the new) Alexandria High School's travel team in two years. It's not impossible, but certainly not definite. There are hunderds and hundreds of kids at that school.[/quote]
