These are largely people who can’t make it as coaches in their home countries. They get paid next to nothing and could care less. If they aren’t totally disinterested, then they are unprofessional, yelling randomly at players. GPS’ model is promote their European connection to get players/money in the door, but then don’t hire quality coaches and pay them as little as possible to keep as much profit as possible. Maybe 1 or 2 top teams in each age bracket get better coaching but the other 10 or so get nothing.
The hook for parents is opportunity for upward mobility. The GPS Top Teams (NPL) are actually pretty good through u15 and so is the coaching. Parents like to begin with local convenience and playing with friends, and are glad to know the pathway to NPL is there if MIA shows she needs it.
Frankly it was a good experience and coaching at NPL level was great. When we were in it for fun at u11, it worked, middle school was very competitive, and finally we left in HS to chase college dreams through ECNL.
For those that want to say NPL is a joke.. Ok.
When we started it wasn't to us. DA wasn't here and Pre-ECNL teams were beaten by GPS (and SSS in MA) plenty at u13. Not sure how GPS growth would play out in CT landscape. Seems like Oakwood and CFC are similar to Stars/NEFC and the soft spot for GPS just below that.
GPS treated all families very well, communication was great, and financial concessions for families that needed it were given.

I don't have a link with scientific proof that jumping from an airplane without a parachute will kill you, but I am pretty sure it still might even though it has not been proven.
Men's D1 204, % foreign 16%; Women's 333, % foreign 6.0%
Mens' D2 213, % foreign 20.7; Women's 265, % foreign 5.1%

why is everyone so angry about kids playing in DA and only going to D3 schools? Why does it matter to 99.9% of the people on this site? Shouldn't it only matter for the kid and the kid's parents, in that order? I'd be happy for any kid to be playing in college, D1-D3, and studying for a career. Who cares? Bravo to all the kids that play high level soccer and play in college while studying for their career goals! Thanks you kids for acting like adults when your parents are acting like little kids in the neighborhood park playing pick up soccer.

The same people will spend money on ski lessons, math tutors, swim lessons, horseback riding, gymnastics classes, piano lessons without issue. But, when you do it for soccer they shlt themselves at the thought.
