[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look at how crazy the Youth Travel programs are locally. Not development, win at all cost. The end result is all the clubs are blowing up because everyone is seeking ECNL or top league play but nobody is truly qualified for it. When you have a group of national players who are all about how many goals they score individually, you don't win games. PERIOD. The style of play in the US has descended into chaos and will only get worse with the current USYNT leadership.[/quote] Yes, and also look at all the new young talent in the USWNT, specifially this selection, the following players did not go to college or left early to go pro, I might miss one: Horan (not young but first notable player to forgo college to go pro) Shaw Rodman Smith Moultrie Albert Fishel Swanson Thompson ECNL again is the elite option for college, but a failing model for international soccer success and long term skill development because coaches are too powerful and play for results. Girls need pro-pathways ASAP! GA are you paying attention, this is a market inefficiency waiting for a league to create pro-pathways [/quote] Umm… US Soccer recently promoted GA to the same level as MLS NWSL USWNT USMNT USL etc. These are the same people that created Development Academy to address this issue 10 years ago. They know we’re in trouble. Soon there’s going to be an NWSL Next equivalent for girls.[/quote] So, SYC/GA dad, while some of the things you hope will happen, should in some form happen, but unless you are expecting a newborn currently there isn't a single child of a parent in this thread who's kids will ever benefit from such a system. It is 10-20 years off. [/quote] Bla bla bla... All NWSL has to do is implement a homegrown rule and take all the MLS Next paperwork and scratch out MLSN and replace it with GA. NWSL could complely upend the youth soccer market overnight if they wanted to.[/quote] Why would they want to? [/quote] The same reasons MLS runs MLSn. They need a place to play their 2nd teams and they want to lock down talent at young ages.[/quote]
