[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]USSF doesnt care about your kid. They want the money. They want a monopoly. Please, get off the high horse. How many of you knew that soccer is a declining sport in the US? How many of you knew that cost and burn out are the most cited reasons? How many of you knew that youth sports is a 17 Billion dollar a year industry How many of you knew that USSF is a horribly run organization? Article; In San Diego, Calif., where year-round sports programs are common, Dr. Tommy John, a sports chiropractor, said parents will sacrifice everything — including selling a home or dipping into retirement funds — to afford elite training for their children. “I’ve heard of families changing cities,” John said. “I’ve heard of polls being taken on Facebook, like, ‘What’s the best baseball cities? Trying to look to where to relocate my 8-year-old.’” “The financial burden is ridiculous,” he said. “And it absolutely creates an inequality where kids are being run out. They don’t have Little League options. They don’t have a basketball option because it costs six grand to participate.” https://www.foxnews.com/sports/youth-sports-17-billion-industry-human-cost https://www.forbes.com/sites/bobcook/2018/07/16/whats-killing-youth-soccer-in-america-is-also-hurting-most-every-other-sport/ [/quote] Is this supposed to be in defense of ECNL???
