[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t wait to see the wunder player in this area who trained and/or just played rec until u14 and then went ECNL/DA. It’s a path I am excited to see and learn about. [/quote]

Me too.  Also curious how pp knows how many DA players did or did not play soccer at ages 7-8. And if they do in fact know, please tell us, what percentage of those top teen players started later on or came from rec?  [/quote]

Different poster, but I agree that you are not going to get the footskills you need to play at the top level if you only do rec around here, though you certainly could pull it off if you come from a soccer family, have a good teacher, and work out on your own.  But you need some plan to have good technique and touch in place by the time you are 12 or so--it's not going to magically happen if you join travel after that, no matter how great an athlete you are.

My DD played rec from K-5 then decided she wanted to try travel. Made the lowest team and has since worked her way up to the A team. (U17 now) it’s hard but not impossible. [/quote]

Is she at one of the big clubs or one of the smaller ones? [/quote]

PP here. Big clubs. [/quote]
