With all the negative posts about Tampa bay area girls soccer, its time to figure out whats good and how to fix it.
We have great facilities here. We have great coaches. We have able parents and a abundance of players. We need to fix the disconnect between this and the development of players.
Is it greed or arrogance that has stopped the natural aggregation of the best players because a true professional coach should always strive to have the players play with the best players. Yet that does not seem to be the case in this area.
Soccer clubs will always make money. Always! There is no shortage of players in the pipeline and its just going to get bigger with world cup coming and the demise of club and high school football.
But something has to be done so this area can compete with other cities and get some exposure. Except for a few standout players the Tampa area has zero credibility with the colleges for developing players.
Lets post some positive ideas because constantly losing can build character but honestly how is that helping these girls future?!
