[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would never choose st James over a wcac school for any of my kids. Kids from all of them go d1 to power 5 (or 4…), they get a normal high school experience, and receive excellent mentorship from the coaches and administration. Sure there might be some soft spots in the lineups that means curated academy lineups will beat them, but you’re making a deal with the devil if you send your kid there imo. [/quote] I don't disagree with what you are saying, but these academies are how sports are run in literally the rest of the world. No youth soccer, basketball or hockey player who expects to turn pro stays in a normal school in Europe or South America (for soccer). Victor Wembanyama started going to a basketball academy at 14...most soccer players are sent off to soccer academies as young as 5...etc. These places are sports first, second, third, fourth and fifth...with a little bit of academics sprinkled in.[/quote]
