Rule number 1. Don't get on a team where the coach has a kid on the team, a relatives kid, a friends kid, or his kids neighborhood friends. Find the most unbiased coach possible. Favoritism stinks especially at U10 and U11.

Love when she slides and knocks the ball away from a striker headed to goal, only for it to be pushed back into the possession of the opposing teams center mid and they move right past her, because she is still on the ground from the slide tackle. Slide tackles are so impressive :)

To play college soccer your kid should learn the boot and scoot, how to tackle hard, run fast, be in good shape and be aggressive. They could then play for any top college team.
Possesion and college soccer do not go together.

No soccer skill from either team supposed to be the best some the best in the Country for Women.
