I couldn’t agree more.

However, the pay to play system in this country is absolutely ridiculous.
Yeah and there are plenty of people who will tell you that it’s not. It’s bullshite. Once tournament weekends hit in the spring and fall I know for fact I’ll be all in about $800 to a $1,000 for the weekend. Not a lot of parents can afford that.

My girls are currently in academy setup at U11 and certain aspects of it drive me up a wall. Within the academy (and all travel ball across sports) there seems to be a belief that traveling will inherently make your kid better at soccer. At this age, reps is what is needed above all in all sports. We travelled to Lafayette in the fall for them to play one league game. That time in the car would have been much better spent playing multiple games against a team closer to home
