You have it backwards. Club is far more fun than High School. My daughter plays at the R3P/ECNL level. She enjoys the club team very much because of the common focus on excellence that all of the players and coaches have. Club doesn't have the social clicks that are found at school with friends who play soccer but at very different levels. She played HS two years and it was horrible. The politics of revolving coaches who favor players affiliated with their club at the expense of the team and a lowering of the level of play from club caused her to loose interest. I do know that when she informed the college coaches on her recruiting list, she got very favorable feedback for not playing HS soccer.
