[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder how coaches are selected for HS soccer.

The JV coach at our school is just a dad.  [/quote]

Teachers at our school. They really need to upgrade. It was fine when these guys started 20 years ago, but the landscape has changed and these unlicensed crappy coaches no longer cut it for kids that have had UEFA coaches most of their childhood and played for former pro players and pro coaches.

It really is a mess.  [/quote]

Please...you can go online and get a basic coaching license in a few hours...do you really think that'll help anything?[/quote]

Kids today play for coaches with decades of experience in International academies, as players and coaches.  To go play for someone that didn't even play college ball or did at some third rate school in the 80s is not beneficial and team selections and coaching reveal that very quickly.

It's fine for 'fun', but most of the top players leave it after a year or two because it isn't worth the serious time constraint, injury risk (1/2 the team is injured before the first game because there is zero concept of rest/recovery you get with top programs mlsnext/college and serious over-use-training).  When the time commitment is making you nothing but a 'worse' player over 2 months it's not worth it.[/quote]
