[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually you are mostly right, but being invited to NTCs is a good resume builder for colleges.  That's the only reason most of us *should* show any interest in participating.  Yep, my kid is not YNT bound.  But having gone many times over the years looks good as an "achievement" , the way being on ODP used to in the past.  [/quote]

What weighs more the NTC invitation or the kid’s GPA?[/quote]

NTC[/quote]

Probably not where my kid will go. [/quote]

No problem.  There's plenty of soccer programs and levels to play up.  This is more for kids wanting to upper section of D1, like the 50 or so-ish programs.  If it's a middle of the road or bottom level D1 program, any decent ECNL or DA player should be fine.  [/quote]

Bless your silly ol’heart. You’re one big mixed bag of confusion.

NTCs are for little girls. Some who haven’t even hit puberty. It’s over a year after most hit puberty (15). You really think that the goofy local coaches can pick the winners/losers who will go on to the top 50 schools?

Here’s what I know for a fact

1. I know girls that went to one NTC and were never invited back
2. I know girls that went to multiple NTCs and at 16 quit the sport
3. I know girls that went to multiple NTCs and by 16 were part time players on DA teams behind girls that were never invited
4. I know girls that went to multiple NTCs and at 16 were bench players at local ECNL and sitting behind girls that never went.
5. I know girls that went to multiple NTCs and weren’t the best player on their team
6. I know girls that went to multiple NTCs because of connections and not performance

Experience is the best teacher. One day you’ll get some. Hang in there kiddo
