[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can coaches act as gatekeepers than essentially? [/quote] Coaches can and often do act as gatekeepers. Good ones are transparent. Bad ones are not always.[/quote] This blows my mind, how does a coach gatekeep? Will they actually not tell a player that an academy is interested? Or tell an academy that a player is not as good as they may think? That just sounds farfetched.[/quote] It's about money and keeping players. This happens for sure especially at clubs that don't cooperate with DCU and think they are at the same level. You can guess which clubs those are [/quote] But wouldn’t it be harder to gate keep now that there’s Taka - which in principal, is kind of a third party evaluator of the players. Especially at U13 and U14. If they have Quality of Play data, they’ve got to have stats on each kid?[/quote]
