No We don’t, but does this fix it? Rename a division and charge more for it?Um, I am not involved at all, not anymore. I'm interested in a system that works for players and all parents. We don't have that.
I guess it apparently gives them a better opportunity for post secondary play but was that not happening from metro before SPL? Or are we saying the level of coaching and play is superior so the talent is better?
I’ll say talk amongst parents on sidelines has always been it’s just an excuse to charge more money but not necessarily the best players are there. And from talk from coaches, that’s true. Kids that are barely metro skilled are playing SPL because there are spots open and parents are willing to pay. Multi sport kids who should be there, and who are better skilled, aren’t going because of commitment. It doesn’t seem to be the best of the best.
Which I guess was metro anyways.
Having said that, I guess they do get all the players whose focus is soccer and want to commit and pay and sometimes that’s just as good. And if the instruction is top notch then it makes sense?
or is the focus strictly National teams development and not generic post secondary play? Or both?
Maybe I’m missing the point of SPL all together. Quite possible! Haha
