The best players in NJ do not play high school soccer. I am not taking anything away from these players but US Developmental Academy players cannot play in high school. That would take about 80-100 of the best players in NJ out of the equation. We need players from NY Redbulls and PDA.

Ah. Got it. Big shift from 35 years ago when I played.

When did they start that? My cousin played for one and was allowed to high school soccer. The level of play was a joke to him but he still enjoyed it. I hate rules like that because I feel the kids miss out on part of a "normal" childhood. Just like I hate the specialization and many sport being year round.
