I'm not saying you contact Harvard/Yale/Princeton/Standford if you don't have a shot at admittance. What I am saying is you should contact 50+ schools, most of which are academic safeties to solid academic matches, but sprinkle in 5 academic reaches you'd like to play soccer at. Don't artificially limit yourself, it's the coach's job to weed people out. Invest the time up front to introduce yourself and you never know what might happen.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostMostly agree, just forget futsal. (While Futsal is a great sport and similar to soccer with using feet, it ain't the beautiful game.) Work out and train, hire a private respected coach to train you, reach out to college coaches, not Newbury (2 kids on a posted list will have to scramble to play soccer elsewhere) or St. Joe's (Maine). If player is in HS or plays club, approach head coach, and ask for help. Good luck.
