[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is appalling in this area the arrogance of travel soccer parents. Is it just me or does everyone think their kid is the greatest?! I'm realistic and my kid is not the best, but soccer is a team sport and seems like it's a bunch of individual mindsets. My DA plays u14 travel in va, moved here 2 years ago. [/quote] Because of Title IX it is much easier for girls to get soccer scholarships because girls' soccer gets more $ and isn't competing with Football. However, the D1 schools get 14 scholarships at one time, compared to the boys' 9.9. Again, this is for the ENTIRE time the players are in college--so if 13 girls have scholarships and nobody is graduating--there is 1 available for the incoming Freshmen class.[/quote] This is the second time you have referenced it in the thread, but nitpicking here, there are partial scholarships, and for many in this area, it isn't about the aid but the admissions.[/quote]
