[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you build up and develop your soccer program when you only take a handful of freshmen? [/quote] Development? What the heck has your kid been doing for the last 5-8 years? Many of these Freshmans that make the squad have been playing competitive soccer since they were 8-10 years old. By the time they are in HS, it is about execution, speed, and IQ. The ones that can pick the right pass, make the turns, take on players 1v1, hold the ball with strength will shine. So when folks ask why only 5 freshmans made it onto JV, most likely they did all the basic things right more than the ones that didn't make the team. If you can't find technical players, then you have to resort to size and speed which a sophmore or junior will most likely be better. [/quote]
