[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is from a professional academy. Most of the “high level” players and parents playing on local mlsn and ecnl teams are not and never will be at that level. Local clubs are not and should not be run like professional academies. If you watch this video and think it applies to your kid and coaches you are living in a dream world. [/quote] The OP describes how things work in the best breeding grounds for player development in the world - places like Catalonia, Spain. Most players that end up in the top professional academies in the region (Barca, Espanyol, Girona, etc) by the time they’re 17 or 18 played for academies with no professional pathways (like Damm, Cornella, Mercantil, etc). The notion that the professional academies house the top players at 14 that then are also the top players at 18 is just completely wrong.[/quote]
