As Happy mentioned, 2 clubs were added this year to the U.S. Soccer Development Academy. What he didn’t mention, is that more than 200 clubs across the country applied to join.
Big, I’m not sure if they actually applied or not, either, but word has it they promised a good number of parents that if they would just be patient, cesa would be in the Academy in no time.
The sad part is not only the ones who were “assured” they would have an opportunity to play on an Academy team at cesa in 2010 (and thus wasted a year they could have been playing Academy), but also the ones whom I’m sure will be told the same thing this coming season.
I just wonder how long they’re willing to wait…
