[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If kid is a soccer player (male) and doesn't get recruited, anyone hear stories of kids taking a gap year and having success the following year? [/quote] Yes. I know two kids who did it for an Ivy. We did not allow our kid to do so. Sometimes they will tell you that you can do a gap year and then they’ll take you- that’s what he got. It’s pretty common. [/quote] Why would a gap year be better for the Ivy than taking the kid directly? Is it because they want older/stronger athletes?[/quote] Also, who is to say that you can compete with the following year's group of athletes who want to be recruited (if you couldn't make it in your own pool). You're better off trying to walk onto a team and see if there's any way to get over via the transfer portal. I think that would be a better plan.[/quote]
