It's a waste of time as your kid will be dropped like a ton of bricks soon... There are plenty of opportunities out there for everyone. Don't over-stretch yourself or your kid for the sake of the Rev's dream. My son has two of his u12 teammates "practicing" with the Revs (according to the parents). They are mid-level players on my son's team (no joke!) Amazing what parents buy into.

I would bet that, if GPS/Seacoast happens, more kids would go to Seacoast and avoid the Revs. The issue has always been poor training at Seacoast and arrogance at Revs. The Revs do NOTHING to help players move to college and the Seacoast/GPS would be a great place for kids to advance!

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostIf it's close, training is good and won't cost you much vs other options why not give a try. Otherwise yes I'd wait until they're older to see where they'll take it (commitment can wane in middle school) and how they mature physically. There's always room on other teams for kids that get cut - they're still going to be good players.

The Revs are a good test for the kids to see what a D1 College experience would be like.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostGPS has never been known to help parents save money.instead they seem to place themselves in areas where the wealthier kids reside.Revs are free ,gps lower level teams will fund the U12 to U18 academy at Seacoast. If Seacoast /GPS ACADEMY teams are fully funded then they will be able to compete with Revs.New england will be split right down the middle. Like the Mason Dixon line...
