Yeah I really put a focus on making sure I was scanning throughout the whole tryout and honestly at first I wasn’t too confident because me and my team wasn’t doing good at all and then the more we played, the better i and my team played which gave me more confidence, good eye for picking that up bro!
Love your positive mentality. You always have next tryout to make it. But for now at least you can be happy that you are improving up to that point. Good luck bro
Aye man I really do appreciate that! As I try to live my life in a positive way and I try to channel that through my content and so it means a lot that you noticed that! And that’s very true that there are always next tryouts! And good luck to you too bro!
@@ateh4 I'm in the same spot as you and you're inspiring me, I tried out for a local academy and was stressed, didn't make it. But you're mentality has been helping me push my skills, effort, and drive for the game. Keep it up!
@@FreddyZeNerd Aye man you really don't understand how much these words mean to me man as that's the whole point of my channel! Keep it up and keep grinding with your head up bro!
I wish my MLS Tryouts were like this (couple months ago for U19), instead they just put us in 2 full field matches for the tryout with subs so I hardly got playtime. I decided to move to morocco to play instead but good luck on the MLS Journey bro.
I’m from Morocco so if you need help in the country just reply to my comments. You should try to get in to the academy there. It’s really good and produced half of the Moroccan team that got 4th in the world cup
Nice job man. I havent stayed on a team for more then a year due to being capable of playing in higher levels over the past three years ive gone from rec to local to regional to ecnl rl im hoping to be able to reach great things like you have and I want to follow you as we both make our joruneys
I'm an old man but played high level travel/academy/college D1 back in the 90s. It's so great what you are doing by sharing this video and information. Back in my day, everything was so secret. Nobody shared information or tried to help other friends/players. I even played on a travel team and one of my teamates was also playing on the US under 18 national team and NONE of us knew it!! lol. that's crazy. His parents and our coaches didn't want other kids getting jealous so they never told us. He'd just dissapear every now and then and miss some of our games. We had no idea why. Keep up the good work. Karma is real. You'll get it back.
Hey thank you very much for your story sir! And yeah the whole goal of my Chanel is to help my viewers become better players and you recognizing that genuinely means so much to me! 🙌
The funny thing is, this still applies today. To progress through higher and higher levels of soccer, you need a ton of high end contacts who have plenty of connections. Many people today keep these sort of connections secret and available only to a select few so that they can succeed.
@@elib295 Yup, you couldn't be more correct bro, I had friends who played club but ever showed me how to sign up and I wonder what would have been if I started earlier but nothing I can do but keep working and moving forward!
That’s wassup bro, I post football content about how to improve as a player, analyzing my games and also taking you guys through my Journey to playing MLS Next and also thank you for those tips too bro 🙏
I am 13 and just made and mls next academy, my advice to u is to work on field awareness and u always want a good first touch especially at a high level. Hope u make it, and good luck for the future
Keep up the good work man. I’m currently playing EDP. 2008 but I’m better than most mls players on my team so just keep it up and work hard and u got this.
Yeah that’s wassu and thanks bro! I’m also currently playing EDP for my new club, and bro keep trying out every year because your young and if you keep training you’ll certainly make MLS Next, keep it up bro!
@@seabassdadino2815 I am going into my first season with my new club called “IFA” at the EDS level, they also have an NAL and MLS Next team so who knows, there’s a chance I can get moved up 🤷🏾♂️
I watched some of your vids like a month ago when you had around 700 subscribers and I came back to your channel to see that you have 1.19k now and 36k views on this vid, that's some huge improvement bro 💪💪 I didn't know so much was gonna change when I came back
i play on a mls next team, how i got on was playing for a decent local club and working hard for around 6 years untill i was a top player on my team. After that my dad emailed a coach of a mls next to allow me to try out at a practice and thats how it started. it just takes dedication and skill.
Really great video bro I haven’t tried out for an mls next team but have been moved up from edp to usys National league. So I pray you and I next year make an mls next team much love bro
its very difficult for me to improve bc my mom cant afford to put me on a high level of travel soccer and im stuck playing w different players every year bc all of my friends decide to move to a higher level and MLS next is a journey thats in my headlights i just have to keep training and my time will come
Yeah bro you just have to work with what you got, I know it’s cliché but keep training and grinding and all you need is one shot and so keep working for that and stay ready for it bro, best of luck!
Aye man just do it! Go search up some clubs nearby and email them for a tryout and Include some video and atleats one of them will reply and all you need is one chance to make it bro so just do it! And I hope my content helps you in any way bro.
I’d suggest working on your first touch. Watch pro games and see how close they keep it to them when receiving. 2nd you are passing to areas instead of feet. You are passing at times hoping someone is there. Instead pass with just the inside of your foot to someone you can see firm and on the ground. Play simple proper soccer. Receive open on your back foot. You also need to up the intensity. Play like your life depends on it. Nice improvement and keep it up.
Yeah, I've been working on my first touch lately and actually have a video about how to improve on your first touch, which is coming out this Saturday, thank you very much for the tips bro!🙏🏿
@@Not.Henry. Aye man you miss 100% of the shots you don't take, so I would train on your weeknesses before trying out so that you will feel more ready and just go there and be loud and communicative, confident and also have fun and talk to the players and coaches around you and all of that will give youa better chance of making it.
Nah unfortunately I didn’t make the MLS Next team but I made their EDS team and I really do appreciate those words and I also hope life is treating you well brodie 🙏
@@Darkknight-ob3np they told me I didn’t make their MLS Next team but they liked me, and EDS is in the USYS National league, it’s confusing if your not too informed on the leagues
I made a couple already, you can see my day in the life of a highschool soccer player video is my 3rd most recent video and I have another day in the life in which I go through a day in the summer as a 16 year footballer (at the time) in the US, And thank you very much bro!! 🙌🙌
loved the video and your football skills, i too also wanna become a pro football player but i live in ny far from academies and even if im close its kinda expensive have any tips on what i should do?
I would say just a play at the highest level possible, wether it is Highschool or a less expensive club team, and work with what you have because all you need in one coach to see you and help you out to bigger things so my advice would be to work with what you can play at and keep training and improving!!
I would say if you have to switch positions slightly, in order to play at a significantly higher level then I would say do it, but if you have to change from such a difference from GK to cm in order to play, even is the level is significantly higher then I would say don’t do it and just stick with the position you love playing
Let me ask, I am a factory worker who lives in Southeast Asia, I am 22 years old, my position is as a striker, is it possible to play in the MLS League? Am I late? It's okay to play for a weak club, the important thing is to be able to play in the MLS league, my dream if I play in MLS is to play for the Seattle Sounders or LA Galaxy.
Aye bro it's never too late but realistic you wouldn't be able to play in the MLS from the start, a more realistic option would be to start at a semi-pro team which in the U.S. is the UPSL league and make your way up the divisions!
dnt get me wrong im a LW/RW nd rn i play in the USYS NL conference playoffs u15 nd my coaches say im a great player nd told me i should try out for an mls next team ,, but im too scared to try out cs im scared i wont be able to keep up nd stay on the team
“You never know until you try” you yourself have to just try and see if you can, and there’s this thing where when you play against players better than you, you naturally play better and play closer to your level, as long as you are decent at the assentials of football then you should be all good bro, and GO TRY OUT!!! 😂
Search up MLS Next teams in your state or area and then go on their website or search up their name with “MLS Next tryout” at the end and the club’s website with the tryouts should pop up
I have a friend who plays MLS Next who was getting scouted my this team to play for them and he told me about a tryout for this team and so now every year I go to the tryouts, you can also find these MLS Next tryouts by simply searching up if there are MLS Next teams in your stats and then searching up which ones are close enough for you and then search up the club name with “MLS Next Tryout” at the end and something from that club’s website should pop up, almost all of the tryouts tho are in the spring around march, so by now they already have their teams but you never know, try it out and if there aren’t any right now then just do it in the spring, hope that helps! If you have any questions, don’t be afraid to dm me on instagram.
Hey I have a question what if you are interested in trying out but the academy is not in the city where you live. And what if you get in but you dont live in the city of the club what do you do? And good luck for your tryout.
If the academy is not in the city then you gotta ask your parents and see if they will be able to make that commitment to dropping you off to games and practices if you as well are willing to make that commitment and if they can’t, then you just gotta play at the highest level possible that is close to you and make the most out of it, that would be my advice!
Search up MLS Next teams in your state or area and then go on their website or search up their name with “MLS Next tryout” at the end and the club’s website with the tryouts should pop up
Almost every state has an MLS Next team and simply just search up the mls next team in your state and search for their MLS Next tryout dates and that’s it! I will be posting a video about how to make an MLS Next academy within the next 30 days so turn on all notifications for that video!
Search up MLS Next teams in your state or area and then go on their website or search up their name with “MLS Next tryout” at the end and the club’s website with the tryouts should pop up
Yeah at the beginning of the tryout where you check in, they ask you your position. For this specific 3v3 tho we just played where ever and made the position’s ourselves
Search up MLS Next teams in your state or area and then go on their website or search up their name with “MLS Next tryout” at the end and you should see it that way
Thank you bro, the biggest tip I could give you is make sure you are always scanning over both of your shoulders and seeing the whole field, especially before you get the ball so that you will know what to do before getting the ball, another thing is in my road to and MLS Next playlist I have drills that can help you with finishing, passing, defending, etc… so also check that out!
This tryout was all the way back in late March, and in the U.S. most tryouts for clubs happen around that time in march, April and just in and around the spring time
I tried out for “IFA” I tried out for their U19 MLS Next team but sadly didn’t make their MLS Next team but they offered me a spot on their U19 EDS team and that’s where I currently play
@@ateh4 I play on the U15 team, they have tryout on summer and they tryout 2 times I think, and they will make u play for their U14 team to see if you are good enough for the U15 team, and after that you will register for the team so they can put your name on every tournament the team plays, and it’s going good so far to me 👍
Yeah I reach out and routinely search up tryouts for club in my state! Check out my latest video to help you get trials and potential make an MLS Next academy!
@@ateh4 thank you bro, i’ve been starting to look at tsf academy (a academy affiliate with the red bulls) and i think i could play with the red bulls academy from tsf
Blondie on ur team was annoying the hell out of me. The amount of chances he fumbled when he could pass, He thinks he's messi and wants to dribble past everyone which he clearly can't bro. And when u set up chances for them, all wasted
Didn't see anyone that is good enough for high level here. Some kids could move the ball but overall they're all the typical "Neymars" trying to dribble passed everyone thats not how the aport works and coaching generally hate that kind of play unless you are... well neymar.... these kids dont know how to make quick decisions instead they wanna show of their "dribbling skills"🤣
@@ateh4 If you try out for any other teams just don’t go to Fa euro is a mls next team but the coaching staff is terrible and they only want money coming from personal experience
