3) So that leaves us with USNT compensation. I believe that for participating on the USNT all players, men or women should be paid equal compensation per game and training session with expenses covered. The base pay should be nominal and should not depend upon results.[b] All bonus money paid to USSF and all other revenues generated by USSF for USNT team games above and beyond that to cover their base pay and expenses should go into a youth development fund to help promote and pay for soccer for under privileged kids and areas.[/b] This will help reduce the pay-to-play barriers in the US for poor youths and will drive a more altruistic motive for playing on and succeeding as a USNT. The better the teams perform the more money there is for our nation’s youth. If some pro players don’t won’t to play for the NT because the comp is not high enough, that is fine, we don’t want your self-interested attitude anyhow. USSF would also pressure clubs to not restrict their best pros to play for USNT due to fear of injury or schedule conflicts. Most wouldn’t anyhow as they enjoy the free marketing. Why do I believe in this approach? Because playing for your country is not about you or about making a cushy salary, it is about representing and sacrificing for your country and providing something back to the younger generation.
