    This thread has to be the craziest on this site. What's interesting is the the people that created it are from the same club being discussed now. Thanks Valeo!!!

        The most common number of connected passes from either team? 1. then a give away.

        Just awful. And I'm sure it's not just them.

        And I definitely should not have watched it after watching Germany's U21 beat Chile's top team to win the Confederations Cup. Same German team toyed with Mexico who we were lucky to tie recently.

        I pulled my son out of academy soccer (not Revs) because after discussing what went on at practice too often, we concluded nothing constructive was being taught. I plan on spending more time with him one on one and enjoying High School. I am so certain I made the right choice.

        Enjoy the traffic.

        Sir, wait till you see your first High School game your son is playing in. There will be a HOLY S--- moment where you might crap your pants. In between academy years my son played on his High School team, which was great with his friends and they had decent team, but the whole idea is not to get hurt. You think you are not learning anything now? Just wait. I guess it depends where you want to end up but at Academy Showcase/Playoffs my son was contacted by 20 Plus colleges. You think you will find that at a high school game? The D1 coaches I talked to don't bother going to high school games, it is a waste of time. Good Luck.

          Most likely the op's kid is still doing high level club. No player goes to only playing high school from DA unless they've decided to focus on other things. We all know college coaches don't go to high school games but the do go to showcases and hold ID clinics. We all know high school soccer is less than optimal, but for many the positives outweigh the negatives. We also know that not all DA clubs are that great and that DA isn't the only path to colleg and soccer.

          Enjoy your time in DA. If your kids lives it that's great. We're not judging your choice so don't judge ours.

            It's the professional route that is the issue with the local DA's. It's not enough to practice 4.5 hours/week.

              Adding one more practice a week won't make you a professional or even that much of a better player. At U15 or so international players are playing and training far more than what we do here. Also, you have to the drive to work on your own, A LOT. Then there's the coaching...

                My god, anyone ever win a tournament before? So much hype, especially since they only won half their games.

                  It's a bit higher level tournament than your typical GPS or FCB tournament.

                    The top GPS 03 team could win that tournament.

                              That lunatic is back? Thought she sent her 13 year olds to Portugal to skip an education while they "go pro".

                                I'm sure they are attending a school in Portugal.
