The point being that you can not participate in GDA and high school soccer, yet players are finding a way around the basic foundation of high school soccer. High school soccer has never been about letting super studs join the team mid season. High school is about trying out and making the team, practicing together as a team, winning and losing games together as a team. High school soccer has never been about turning players away to wait two months for a GDA player to come join in on the practices, games and fun. -
Good luck
Hope the best to all the future College players who will enjoy the 3 months of kickball...Parents need tostep in and not let thier kid risk the set back or even a scholarship due to a non logical deacion made by a kid..Great job mom/dadComment

There are GDA players joining the high school rosters in midDecember once the GDA club season is over to help their teams clinch the Florida State Cup. They will only have to do about a month of high school kickball with the holidays.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Something isn't right. Can a basketball player become part of the high school team two months late because they are off doing something else outside of school?Comment
-
U.S. Soccer made it very clear that players can not participate in Girls DA and high school soccer at the same time, and now the high schools are bending the rules and allowing players to join the high school rosters in mid December. This has to stop now.Comment

Can anyone find a rule in the high school handbook about players having to play a certain amount of games for their school in the season to be eligible to participate in the high school playoffs? Can a new player move into the district and be placed on a school roster in mid December?Comment

Do you think the Principal or Athletic Director even knows if a player is or is not practicing and playing games with the high school soccer team? They won't even question when a new player shows up in mid December. The players might wonder why the girl is wearing a soccer shirt when she isn't part of the team until December, but the the girl won't care because the whole school will think she is on the team. No one goes out to watch the games.Comment

Assuming the girl can't wear a HS soccer jersey or get one until her name comes off the GDA roster after the GDA showcase, but who's following any rules.Comment
-
High School rule 66.35.2
Player may not be issued a high school jersey until she is officially on the roster which can not be until she is officially off a Girls DA roster.Comment

No the adults involved need to teach kids that there are rules that you accepted when you chose DA. Injury risk is a distant 2ndary concern (and very over blown as club soccer has plenty of injuries as well) to teaching kids the difference between right and wrong. Parents, HS coaches and club coaches that are letting kids do what they want should be ashamed of the lessons they are teaching.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

But you're assuming GDA is telling the state or even the HS when a player is not doing GDA. Of course that is not happening. A player can pretty much tell the HS whatever they want - "Oh sure coach. Yeah. I'm not doing DA right now. Yeah...."Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

It will become a f’ing contest which high schools can recruit the most GDA players!Comment
-
How can these high schools be adding players to their rosters late after GDA games are done or after the GDA Showcase? Don’t the rosters have to be final after tryouts and posted by the school?Comment
-
Um, no it won't. The high school coaches are not recruiting players. The players are asking if it's possible to play.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
