Oh


That is for High School Soccer players. The odds for high level club soccer increase well above that. ECNL and DA level soccer players odds are much, much higher to play D1 scholarship or otherwise.

The High School soccer playing pool is much larger than the ECNL/DA player pool that most D1 programs recruit from.


Also, note this from the linked site: "The odds vary significantly depending on where you compete in High School. The odds of playing D1 are notably higher for players from the Mid-Atlantic states, but much lower for players in many other areas. The odds are especially low for states without NCAA I schools that sponsor men's and/or women's soccer."

A lot of posters on DCUM love to talk about how low the odds are of kids playing in college, and I've always thought it was strange given the significant number of kids--way above the national averages--I know (including D1 players receiving athletic scholarships) who do. I think those posters are looking at the national odds and not focusing on how much better the opportunities are for players in our area. We are fortunate both to have a strong soccer culture here, and tons of local colleges within easy driving distance.


Yes, region and league level of play are tremendous filters.

What percentage of girls and what percentage of boys who play either ECNL/DA play soccer in college (D1, D2, or D3)? Get some money to play soccer in college?

Most D1 schools carry 25-30 players... At least a couple of international players on full rides, plus a few ecnl/DA studs on big money. Not much left for the rest

One or two players may be fully funded the rest are partial scholarships that are divided up across the top players on the roster.


And most players get no money.


Starters get some money, subs do not. "Most" is certainly defined by roster size.

Do you mean what percentage of schools offer full scholarships to all players on a team? Zero.

Or do you mean what percentage of schools have funding for the 9.9 or 14 scholarships they are allowed?

On the girls side a fully funded program has 14 scholarships to spread around 25-30 players. The men’s side only has 9.9.
