Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI agree that WFF,Clearwater, and TBU have overall the strongest programs. If anything else because of the size of the clubs. Strictly has a handful of decent teams but their ship has sailed. Small club with many weak teams in most of their age groups. They try to do things the right way but it is very hard to compete with the bigger clubs especially as they get older.

Only four clubs are worth your investment if your looking to advance your kids soccer skills: TBU, WFF, Charger and Strictly. All of the rest of the clubs are simply social clubs where the teams play in an advanced recreational league called the USA LEague

what a bunch of xxxx
Originally posted by Unregistered View PostOne of the most valuable assets of the USA League is its distribution of scholarship money to graduating high school seniors. I don't see any other league mentioned on this board disitributing upwards of $30,000 to $40,000 each year in $500 to $750 increments to roughly six dozen kids moving on to college.

I agree
Originally posted by Unregistered View Postthe scholarship program is there for the benefit of the leaders of USA to feel good about themselves, trust me 750 bucks does very little in regards to paying for college. What's even worse is this money comes from all the USA players, a typical pyramid scheme. Now if you want it to be about the kids then give one or two scholarships of 20k or 40k to one or two players. Now that would have an affect for the player not the USA bosses. Also, take a look at how much it costs to put the award ceremony.

My son received a USA league scholarship last year and it was very much appreciated . Along with 4 other small academic merit scholarships we were able to cover a large portion of his dorm and food expenses , which amounted to around $6000 , for the year .
