My kid got an offer from a club, which they said will expire after 3 days. What are people’s experiences with this type of thing? Are clubs very strict about it or are willing to give a little more time? Thanks.

Expiring Offers?
would not worry about it...take your time. Clubs always willing to take on players at any time throughout the year. Especially, if they feel your kid is a decent player. In the end, all they really want is more cash.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post -
If it is from NY$C, don't worry, they are just trying to lock in the tuition ASAP. History shows that they will take mediocre to poor players any time of the year.Comment

That’s not a ringing endorsement, is it? Unfortunately on the girls side there don’t seem to be many good options in or near Westchester outside of NYSC, and NYSC seems to have a very good girls program from what I can tell.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Soccerwire says NYSC is pretty good. Between Westchester, Putnam and even southern CT they are a very good option.Comment

Honestly, how is NYSC on this list at all? It ruins the rest of the list and I don’t trust it at all.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

NYSC is counting on the fact that there are not many good options. Prior to the merger with FC Westchester, NYSC was the better option but at least there was an option. Somehow with the merger, NYSC inherited Carlos from the FC Westchester as the head of the girls program. He ran a mediocre program at FC Westchester and runs a mediocre program at NYSC. But as it turns out mediocre with good branding, a nice field, and little competition pays the bills. For the three years that there was DA the club at least had that to offer but with the collapse of the DA and the move to GA they don't offer much on the girls side. The GA is a weak league that will continue to get weaker as the ECNL/ECRL grows. If NYSC is lucky the ECNL will grant them ECRL status.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Really depends on 1) how strong a team it is/if it's in demand. With most it's just a pressure tactic so they can lock you in. But if it's a quality team people want, they can easily move on to the next player. 2) how much they want your player.

Cluns want to lock-in as many players as they can before official tryouts so they know how many more they need, if anyComment

Yes, clubs are trying to lock you in with a deadline but there is more to it then getting you to open your wallet. Clubs may have 6-9 players trying out for a team that may only have three spots needed. They institute a window for you to accept the offer so they know when to move on and offer to the next players on their list. Teams will typically stagger offers in the event their first choices accept.Comment

I’m a NYSC long-hauler, one of the pre-blackout parents, before the empire bought the golden goose, alas there was a place once called Camelot, but just for the boys, the girls were always 3rd fiddle, but we still managed to have fun and she got her ticket, miss those days with Rossano never bothering to talk to the parents, must admit he was a bit mythical, he would always show up to games through a small mist or fog, every time, no matter where we played, it was uncanny...Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Always been a club more for boys than girls. Any good coach on the girls side gets pulled over to boys asap.Comment
