[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] and how much was their first contract worth compared to a kid who played high school soccer, went to college got a degree and was employable? [/quote] It appears your argument is that everyone should play high school vs exclusively club because the odds of getting ahead financially are tiny. While that is true, I think you may have a fundamental misunderstanding of why kids play club soccer. It is not at all about money, it's about their competitiveness, college admissions and the desire to continue to play into their college years. For most, HS soccer is not as competitive as club, poses injury risks, and does not help them achieve their college goals. Further, just because one is a college athlete does not mean they are not going to be competitive in the job market. [/quote]
