[quote=Anonymous]There are AT LEAST 30+ academies like this in the geographic region of London that is equivalent to the size of the area the DC United Area covers.  They are free because it is funded by sponsors and the cost of training is cheaper than transfer fees.  We have not yet adopted this model yet and most people on this forum do not have kids who can project to collect million dollar transfer fees.  My son is 10 and I have no idea how he projects yet.

If your child is serious about soccer, this is something to consider as this is something I am planning if my son continues on his trajectory.

The lack of this setup is why America is lagging behind the world in soccer.  From U14, top kids are playing soccer 2-4 hours daily and not wasting 2-4 hours in homeroom, recess, afterschool BS, etc.

If you go to an international academy, you save the $29k but you don’t own your rights.
I live in America and believe in education so I am looking for a hybrid if the situation does come up in a few years.  I really ask for many of you to educate yourself on the business of sports before dismissing EVERYTHING as a money grab.
