New Season

It's that time again when the teams are forming, practices starting, referee courses starting, and players, coaches and referees getting in shape. Time to get registered in a re-certification course, take the on-line H.S. COPE course and volunteer for some friendly matches to get ready for the season. See you on a soccer field soon.

High School v. Club

The never ending battle of which is better is about to begin again. This year several players have once again decided to quit club or quit H.S. because the other provides better training, opportunity to make a college team, etc., etc. Why can't the coaches work together for the benefit of the players. H.S. should take precedent during their season and club during their season. The coaches should coordinate training sessions so as not to overwork the players while working towards the best conditioning and skills training. Clubs are so busy telling players how they have to play for them to get a college scholarship when working towards good grades, being a good overall player and all around good kid will get you where you need to be. Let me know what you think?
