I have a vested interest to field the best competitive team in this age group for the Low Country and try and compete at the Challenge Level. I would not say that MPSC fielded a competitive team this or last Season at the challenge level. I believe I used the term soccer professionals and the "knock" was not just directed at MPSC but I would include Bridge and SAA DOCs for not working together in the best interest of all these 94 girls.




I think everyone on some level wants their team to be the best competitive team in their grouping. Winning is a heckuva thrill. Still, these are 12 to 14-year-olds who are still developing as players...does there really need to be all that pressure for them to be the "best competitive team in their age group for the Low Country" right now, or is it more important to think about what they might grow into, given time and opportunity, by the time colleges start looking at them later? The conditions that produce the most wins at 13 aren't always the ones that produce the best players at 18.


I've got good news and bad news...
