And these players playing at their tournaments that FC Dallas (or Atlanta United or Houston Dynamo, etc.) play on teams not affiliated with MLS clubs. And they are paying fees to play for those clubs.


Correct, now if these teams can get paid for the players they develop then we can move away from that. But USSF will not allow it.

No one pays to play youth soccer in Spain because enough people pay money to watch professional soccer in Spain. There is enough revenue to make it so. There is not enough revenue associated with professional soccer in order to pay youth soccer coaches!


Travel teams that are not MLS affiliated could pay coaches and for stuff if they got their fair pay or if USSF actually invested in them. Instead USSF takes money from the.

Are you suggesting that there is enough money to pay youth soccer coaches in the USA. The revenue is there, but it is just all going into the USSF's pockets instead of into the local club and youth soccer coaches' pockets?
