[quote=Anonymous]We moved from Europe last year to the US soccer system and it's been quite a change. Beside aforementioned differences in training, one of the biggest issues has been cultural. Football in Europe is just part of life. It's something the kids do at recess, it's what they talk about at lunch, it's what they watch on the weekends with their parents and uncles and friends. The style of play, the discussion of tactics, the attempts to recreate their heroes in the neighborhood. It's a football culture that is all encompassing and leads to a higher 'soccer IQ' than kids here, eventhough many here are great athletes with some decent coaching. This has been the biggest adjustment for us. [/quote]
