[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It has to be our system. Is it that the players are too spread out? Are they not being identified? I don't know. [/quote] Personally I think it's the culture. How many of the kids on the top teams in the area are playing every lunch time and after school. In most of the world kids from age 5 or 6 onwards erupt out of schools onto playgrounds and parks and streets with a soccer ball several times a day. Ours attend three or four organized pratices per week. No matter how good the coaching, there's no comparison.[/quote] Judging by the number of kids at all the MoCo HS tracks I go to, tons of kids are taking advantage of the free time and track space to play soccer. I go on weekdays between 4 and 6 and at random times on weekends, and the fields are packed with groups of kids playing. I often walk around the outside of the school grounds because I’m nervous about proximity to so many people. [/quote]
