[quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad][quote=Anonymous]Day drink much? This meandering babble gave me a headache.[/quote] Never been drunk. Might be a little punchy from getting up early to ref a couple of games. To summarize it all, though: - Michael Jordan wasn't cut from his JV team as a sophomore. He actually played on the JV. He didn't make varsity that year. - The notion that kids who don't make travel teams lack work ethic or a desire to improve is piffle.[/quote] I completely agree with your last point. My oldest did not make U9 McLean team and was crushed at the time. The coaches thought there were about 40 kids better than him. We went to another club. By his junior year at high school, he played on an ECNL team. He also got offers to play in college. If your kid has work ethic, drive, and some amount of talent, he will get better. What coaches think about a player at any particular point in time does not define what the player can accomplish. [/quote]
