[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s the penalty for a player in DC United playing HS for broad Run? Suspension from MLS next Team?

Is it aceptable to allow outside entities dictate what a teenager can/can’t do with regard to his HS and the joys and memories that come with it?[/quote]

How could you do both just on the logistics alone?  Would be curious.

But, if you play in DCUs academy you agree to forego HS soccer and I'm pretty sure they would kick you out if you were caught doing both.  Can't guarantee that but it is against the rules of MLS next to do both.  Playing HS soccer makes the player ineligible to play MLS next .Your best bet is to ask DCU to designate your son as a "future player" which then makes him eligible To play HS soccer. This significantly reduces his involvement with DCU but it allows him to do both.  Or you can apply for a waiver through Pdev which is the MLS management group of MLS next. Most parents don't understand the future player designation and/or the rules of MLS next.  https://www.mlssoccer.com/mlsnext/resources/rules-and-regulations/#:~:text=Except%20as%20set%20forth%20herein,not%20available%20for%20middle%20school).[/quote]

You sign a contract with the academy, one being no high school allowed.  And there's no such thing as a "future player" on an academy team.  You're either in or you're out.  If you want to play high school, don't accept an academy offer.  This isn't like a MLS next club, you don't pay so you don't really have any say.[/quote]
