US Development

[Soccershins]

Thought this was an interesting series and wanted to share. Looks at the player development of a kid who at the age of 11 could tell the American System was flawed. The first 3 parts are though the eyes of the mother and offers a pretty neat perspective.

Part 1 - Is it Broken?

Part 2 - The Egg Drill

Part 3 - Stubborn Coaches

Part 4 - Overseas adventure

I'm inclined to think Coach Porter is doing his part to help America fix the problem

Interesting but no way do the vast majority of kids get these sorts of opportunities

Part V. The grass is always greener where they throw the sauerkraut. Mom, it's hardly as if the US has never considered foreign coaching strategies. In fact, sometimes it seems we've explored everything so much, we've failed to develop our own system.
