[quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad][quote=Anonymous]Isn't it just a "small percentage" of boys playing soccer who receive scholarships because way more boys than girls play soccer?

I mean, let's be real -- aside from a few niche areas, nobody and I mean nobody cares about girls sports at any level ... so it's just some boyish activity that girls get into because of federal laws mandating "equal" sports in college that drives the girls soccer craze.  Otherwise, nobody cares. [/quote]

Not that big of a difference:

The law requires that the same number of scholarship support be given to men's and women's college sports.  The reason boys get less soccer scholarships in soccer programs is that universities give most scholarships athletes who play American football and other men's college sports get the meager leftovers.  On the girls side, sports scholarships are not used for football, which benefits other sports including soccer.    [/quote]
