[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How sad. Poor kids don’t even have the ability to try out for a team.[/quote]

If they could try out for free, they still couldn't afford thousands of dollars to be on the team.[/quote]

+1. It isn’t about the best players. It is about the ones who can afford to play.

Clubs offer aid and scholarships. Why not apply? Tryout fees do seem silly though.[/quote]

The biggest issue is [b]all the silly travel[/b].  As expensive as the fees and also requiring a huge time budget.  Not aware of clubs that cover travel costs outside of the boys MLS academy teams.

[b]Soccer is not a good activity choice for any family without a very comfortable income.[/b][/quote]

With all the good clubs in this “hotbed” of soccer, why does anyone feel the need to join a league that plays games in North Carolina and asks for commitments to tournaments in the Midwest?

PP is right: Youth soccer in America is only for wealthy suburbanites who can afford it, a model used nowhere else in the world.[/quote]

But I don't give a shit if America doesn't lead the world in soccer player development.[/quote]

And there is a affordable soccer for you and your kid. [/quote]
