I don’t know. It’s a relatively inexpensive tournament with good teams. It’s a great opportunity for coaches to see the new players on the squad in real time before the games matter. Works for me.

When games really matter?!?

If you think this way, that is why your kid will not make it.

If you want your kid to have a shot, the games don’t matter for kids before age 16. Learn and develop from every game and situation.

If you are still in this tournament at age 16, you just should not worry about the scores and comparing because your kid is not good enough to be having these types of evaluations.

You’re welcome.

I'm not sure why folks here are so worried about the future of American soccer. There are lots experts on youth development right here, making anonymous comments. We should be good, if people would just listen to them.

I dont know why these delusional people think the only valid reason to play soccer is to reach the professional level when 99% won't make it there no matter what they do and just want to have fun competing at whatever level they are at.

How you came to the neanderthal conclusion that people think the only valid reason to play soccer or any sport is to reach the professional level?

Do the 1% get identified at age 5 and then everyone else should stop playing?

Hey everyone, stop having goals, ambitions and drive to be successful. Just give 30% effort because Einstein here says its a waste

If you dont care about the score of games until you are 16, then clearly the purpose of playing is to reach the highest level and do everything right to get there. If that's your goal, then that's fine nothing wrong with it, just dont force it on everyone else. But most players don't have that goal and just want to compete.

Most people not having a goal, ambitions or drive to be their best is a reason the most work for the few and success is for a small percentage of society

You mean participate, not compete.
