Again. It is a supplemental thing to do in the winter for fun. You are paying to play DA. You are not a professional under contract. They can’t ban you from doing extra training. Ct Brazil has kids from almost every club.

Might want to review the rules bright boy - pages 10 and 11 review outside participation policies, http://www.ussoccerda.com/doclib/201...EGULATIONS.pdf

"DA Clubs may not permit any full-time Academy Player to participate on a non-DAteam
during the Academy Season. The only permissible soccer related reasons to miss
Development Academy activities is National Team duty and YNT Identification Center
participation."

If OW is looking the other way that's their choice, but a foolish one. And if players aren't getting enough training/touches from the club, why are they there in the first place?

Academy season is over, and rules apply to soccer specifically- high school and middle school, Futsal and soccer are not the same

Correct- full year commitment, no soccer during academy season... you can do basketball, track, or any other sport, except soccer.. nimrod

My guess is that if you went to DF and RD and specifically asked them if players could do Futsal with an outside club the answer would be NO. They've never been flexible with this stuff.

Well guess again, you don’t need permission from anyone, it is not soccer. Rules pertain to soccer only! Many DA players play other HS sports. Just not soccer

Sign of weakness from OW brass if they are letting kids play.

I can tell that it's a fact from a years ago there's no how or way kids were playing futsal, 3v3 etc during the season.

I can tell you that my D played at OW and there was a bunch of players that did Futsal in the winter and 3v3 on their own. Not sure why you would believe the OW brass has any power about what players choose to do, but I’m sure it has a lot to do with the crap you read here.

Maybe because I've had kids go through the program and signed the "contract"

Same here, three kids went through the program and all have done Futsal and 3v3 on their own. No problems whatsoever

Sounds like you got soundly beaten. If that’s the case, maybe you should tryout at OW and try winning for a change.

It's utterly insane that people are logging on and quoting DA rules out of context (it is the winter season for goodness sake) and bitching about what a group of 12-15 year old girls are doing during the off season. My goodness do you have way too much time on your hands.

Who cares? How are you effected negatively?

My goodness.
