Don't get me started lol....I know for a fact that many players around here get "academic scholarships", or scholarships for being "poor" to attend the soccer powerhouse private schools in the area. How do I know this? I referee with many parents that send their kids there, and they tell me that they have reduced tuition/no tuition costs to come play soccer for these schools. It is a little hard to argue why these schools are so good year after year when they continue to recruit the "best" soccer players off of the local club teams.
