Originally posted by Unregistered View PostActually no, we did not need that. I have heard stories about people who go to these TDS showcases just to get extra little red stars, my daughter got 3 stars with NO bribes, she got them during a North Carolina GDA tourney in 2018. She played like a monster, and got a great write-up, she was thrilled, and plenty of her club mates were impressed and jealous....

She sounds like a great player. I just find the entire landscape to be unfortunate and there is nothing to be done about it. No offense to your player or my player who get accolades but so many players are just cut out of the running before the race even starts that the accolades are for big fish in a small pond. It would be better to have all the fish in the same pond or at least most of them.

*TDS stars mean little. While they send staff to top events they can't possibly watch a meaningful number of players from around the country. There are great players that aren't on lists or have stars, and players on the list with stars that aren't very good. Aer the evaluators journalists or soccer experts?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostIf your kid is a player accolades do not matter. They may make you feel good, but college coaches see what they see on the field. They don't pay attention to TDS stars*. If you want stories written about your kid they should have kept playing HS. Local papers are dying for material and then there's all the end of the season awards.
