Two Bolts U17 defectors to the Revs not getting released to play for the Revs crappy U17 team in the Academy showcase next week in California. Payback's a b*tch. hahahaha!
Fortnite for the week boys!

They can't change teams until August. FIFA rules.

Unless their prior club releases them. Bolts could do that but they don't have to. Players can appeal to USSF for a release but it's unlikely it would happen this late in the season. If you know a player is leaving, are you going to treat him fairly? Some coaches are aholes. They could tell the players to stay home, they could have them go and not play them (which is worse). College coaches won't care who they're playing for, but if they're not playing at the event that isn't good.

Why would Bolts release them for this showcase? Seriously, what would be the reasoning? Both Revs/Bolts are going to the showcase, right? Season is not over, right? My family is not in this college showcase situation yet, but why would a club be getting heat for not releasing a player so he could play for another club... Unless, Bolts team isn’t going? Is that the case? That would be the only reason where it may make sense. I’m probably missing something.

I am a Revs parent, but I think the Bolts are being reasonable. As long as they play the kid in the showcase.

That said, if the players do go with their team from this year (Bolts), then the coach would be a complete a*s not to play him the amount of minutes that he should get.

Agreed. I’m the post right above (our posts crossed), but that’s my thought too.

They have been kicked off the Bolts and not being release to the Revs for the Showcase. Next time they cleat up will be in September. How do you like them apples?

Two 01's too! One more year in the DA. Lesson to parents and players here. Can't do what you damn well please. courtesy, integrity and honesty goes a long way. Guess what, people are paying attention, they notice.

Makes no difference really, Revs aren't getting any phenoms there.

Agreed, a couple of future Dean College players, at best.

Um, well why were they kicked off Bolts before the end of the season? Before making judgment on the release/no release, we'd have to know that....

That is a dik move. If you expect players to play hard and stay loyal all year, the club should reciprocate.

Sounds like they have a case to make to USSF. They should appeal. Preventing kids from showcasing is inexcusable, it's all about spite

So, they were kicked off Bolts because they found out they were heading to Revs next year? If so, the Bolts should release them. Something tells me there is more to the story.

You cannot change teams as you please regardless of who releases whom. You can only switch teams in Jan and August in the US.
