[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean it is USA soccer, pay to play.  The best kids don't get a chance in our system.[/quote]

If you are good, people will find you. And 40% of the kids in our club are on aid. Is it even close to ideal or fair?  No. Is it difficult?  Yes. Is it impossible?  No. [/quote]

It would seem to reason that if clubs and their complicit or checked out boards weren’t ridiculously overcharging for their ‘nonprofit’ services, fewer kids would need aid and many more would probably participate. But hey, turn a blind eye to this because it’s USA soccer. Clubs don’t care about the kids, they care about the clubs (which is the permanent staff’s wallets rather than the 1099 coaches). [/quote]

Right. I think you are turning a blind eye to reality. It’s useless arguing with people who think money simply grows on trees. Who would fund this alternative system?  Why doesn’t it already exist?  Do you think It would be better to charge less but offer no aid?  These are the same arguments people have had for decades about college tuitions. A lot of people have thought about this before you. What do you propose other than people working for free? [/quote]
