Do you seriously think a college coach will be just fine with a kid that is not in good shape? No club coaches with 90 minute practices should be spending time on fitness. You do that on your own.

There are a good many college fitness programs used for soccer on line. Look at them. Could your kid do them? And then do them again every day for 2 weeks? They also need to be working upper body. They don’t have to become powerlifters, but they should be able to bench their weight.
