[quote=Anonymous]My kid is u15 on a top 30 in the nation team. Here's some feedback on this topic. First some players are just going to be more physically able than others. Coaches will ALWAYS pick these players first because they all think they can develop any player to the highest levels. These players will always have an advantage sometimes people call it RAE but that kind of thing goes away by u13-u14. Soccer IQ is usually how smaller players differentiate themselves but this only works if coach's respect more of a possession style of play. Once you get to the highest levels all the players have a high soccer iq, they practice constantly, and the truly gifted use their gifts to take things to the next level.

Reguardiing how players get picked for the top team. Usually you can tell if the club is into recruiting over development if their top team is really good and the 2nd 3rd etc teams are nonexistent. Clubs that value development have several levels of teams and they're all relatively good. They'll also likely have a big rec program. All groups should be funneling top players up once talent is identified.[/quote]
