[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go on trial with Nashville if child academic. Avoid Philly. Great for soccer development but kids don’t learn much off pitch.[/quote] Isn’t Nashville and Philly miles apart from the quality of their soccer development? Nashville might not even be as good as dcu which this forum considers is a pretty low standard. There’s got to be a middle ground where the education is solid as is the soccer development[/quote] A professional soccer club academy is built to develop players the senior team can sign once they age out of the academy. the have zero interest/incentive to develop kids academically, nor do you see any of the MLS Academies touting the players who came through their academy and placed in college. Success for an MLS Academy director is not wins/losses, its developing just 1 or 2 players every year that can be signed to a pro contract at the end - no incentive to care about academics.[/quote]
