[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]US Club and USYS are selling out. A big private equity firm in the process of buying both governing bodies and their assets.

What will this mean for youth soccer?…[/quote]

They’ll go bankrupt within a few years.[/quote]

As long as parents are delusional about their kids ability and keep paying fees I don’t see how they go bankrupt? They will own the leagues and clubs will need places to play. From what I understand it’s the same equity firm who just bought surf and rush.[/quote]

It’s alphabet soup.  People that think mls next will be around in 5 years  likely to be mistaken  .  Parents will continue to be delusional about their kids abilities but the data on the end game ( college/pro) being a fantasy are starting to be better known.  The cost and time/travel for p2p is wearing thin.  Couple that with not being able to play other sports even HS soccer is creating a split at u14/u15.  Mlsn talent will overall water down as a result.  We are driving some of the best athletes away from the sport before they can figure out their potential and how bad they want it.[/quote]
