This is also super accurate, I’ve done both d1 college and the European route, both were good for me but both also had its own drawbacks. That being said, being in Europe was almost a totally different animal. It’s regarded differently to coaches and even if it’s a low division, Europe is taken more seriously. But take that with a grain of salt. I enjoyed both situations.

The UPSL is huge for younger guys. To continue playing competitive after HS 5-10 years ago you HAD to go to college. My club team had 6-7 guys who didn’t want to go to school but accepting half ride scholarships to schools was the best thing to keep playing a competitive game. Now the UPSL is growing. Kids can work and continue to play or go to community college and not get too far into debt just to continue to play. The UPSL is cool. I hope to see that league grow

That's good music during the passing and cone drill. I feel good watching soccer, even some drills. Thanks for the video. The camera angles are good. That field is beautiful. You will get assists and afterwards they will be perceived as a major threat by defense so they will have to shift towards you, opening up other players.

Well said. There's a huge gap between pro level in Europa and US high school. It's even bigger than the gap between being a pro club academy player in Europa. The step from European academy team to the pro team is big. You need a lot of skills and luck because there are many guy out there chasing this few pro spots... If you aren't already training in their youth teams at the age of 14/15 you are probably not that interesting to pro clubs anymore because you missed to many opportunities of high level competition to prove yourself in the battle... I've seen this happening to many great youth players here in Germany with my own eyes...

the first thing you should have is enjoyment and fulfilment when playing. Once you have that down, everything will come naturally, just make sure that you enjoy playing first. The higher you go, the more difficult it becomes no doubt. However, if you enjoy it every aspect of the game, you will unconciously become better.
@joblakelisbon
@joblakelisbon 4 года назад
That's an interesting question. It's something that doesn't receive anywhere near enough attention. I remember joining the academy set-up at Sheffield United in England. I actually played in the same youth side as the current captain. I found there was quite a culture of bullying and hazing even as a young teenager - 13/14 and to be honest some of the coaches really damaged my confidence. I remember one of my coaches saying to me 'You came in here as a 10/10, now you're a 3/10.' At the time that really destroyed my confidence and my love for the game. It's only now that I'm a teacher myself that I realise the level of stupidity of that particular coach. If a student comes into my class on a grade A and he drops to a grade D, what does that say about me as a teacher? I saw a few of my team-mates go on to have pro careers and to be honest, I think virtually all of them had confidence issues that came from being judged, critiqued and hazed too harshly at a young age. I wonder how many of them might have had even better careers had they been able to play with full-confidence. It's such a fine-line between people understanding that they need to up their game to a new level and having their confidence damaged.

I played up to reserves for an EPL team then came back to the US for the youth national team and stayed for college. College route is way more difficult because you have less time to train, and the quality of coaching just isn't there. When I was 16, I was on par with the internationals for the u18 teams in Europe, my teammates were all called up to their respective countries as was I for the US. I didn't get an ounce better mentally/tactically in college, I still progressed physically and skill wise but after graduation I denied attending the combine and entered the workforce. In Europe i would train with the reserves and be around the first team, in college we were the first team, we had no one to model ourselves after. We all peaked; some went to the MLS, but college killed our development... We even had a Herman Trophy finalist deny the MLS, it just wasn't worth it. If you get the opportunity, go to Europe and never look back, but be ready to deal with major depression and home sickness, i was desperate to come home.

But the coach has limited amount depending ur year in school. You should write an email to the coach and tell him about yourself and your intentions and interest in the school. Maybe send a video. Update that video every year if you’re really interested in that school. Keep your grade up cause that’s one of the basis for scholarships. Good luck!

@joblakelisbon
@joblakelisbon 4 года назад
I'm amazed that people think they can come to Europe at 17 or 18 to become a pro. Most of the players over here have been in elite academy set-ups from before their teens. I had a trial with the Nottingham Forest academy aged 12 and got signed by the Sheffield United academy aged 14 and I was considered a late-comer. The academy system will expose players to a higher level of competition at a younger age than you would get in the US. It's hard to come over at 18 and catch up with 6 or 7 years of the kind of work that is going on in the pro academies here. I've definitely seen some player do it, but it's rare. A lot of the decent American and Canadian players I played with had quite an 'immature' game in comparison to European players - they were talented but I think the lack of elite competition and coaching made them think they were better than they actually were. Then they got England and found the level was a lot higher so they would have to adapt their game rapidly or be unable to compete - or in some cases, they just didn't have the technical level - the touch, the feel for the ball, the striking consistency. American players hardly ever lack work-rate and are usually some of the best conditioned athletes but my impression was that mentally they weren't developed enough. A European player is doing a lot more work in their head, body position, head swivelling to see team-mates, fast reactions, technique etc. I really think that if US players would develop more technically at a young age, the talent pool and sports culture in the US is enough to create a powerful football team.

Hey Matt, I’m in a difficult situation right now. I have a connection in Europe and my family can financially afford the expenses, but I feel like I’m not at that level of play. When I contacted my connection over in Europe, they said I should go over there and develop there with their academies for an year then try to go pro rather than taking the college route for development because I’m already 17 and cannot afford to lose another 4 years. Please suggest something. Would be really helpful.

Is taking a gap year the best choice for those players that don't have college offers and didn't have a great senior year, soccer wise. Or should they go to to college and try out as a walk-on. I personally am taking a year off and working to save up for school and working to get better at soccer.

Hey mate, what is it like at college? I’m living in Australia and might have the opportunity to go over soon, I’m a good student and know a good bit about my football, what’s the social life like? Is there more to it than just study and football?
