Games of the week....

Great games this week in the academy.
Albión vs Nomas should be a very good game and GSA vs Real So Cal maybe the best two goalies in the age group.
Why is Real playing two games this week?

GSA vs RSC??

It's a disservice to both players and parents of GS-

I'm sure there TONS of kids learning , JJP. But the ideal player as you pointed out for academy be the ones, "kids who were taught to shoot at a young age".

Doesn't that make sense?

It makes a lot of sense.

Most people on these boards are saying team X develops, and team Y doesn't, but the reality is just about every team is playing to win right now. So they play at striker the kid who knows how to finish right now, even though he doesnt have speed, or he will eventually be too heavy to play the position, or he can't jump and will suck at air balls, and looks nothing like the prototype of what a striker should look like.

When that kid can't do it anymore, the clubs will train or more likely recruit a kid that fits the prototype and train up his finishing.

Learning how to finish is an incredibly difficult skill to learn and coach. It takes a lot of time and reps. You can't just shoot it high over the goalie anymore, which is pretty much what most of the top strikers in younger age groups do.

Unless you have a dad who knows how to train you at striker, how to turn, which turns to use and when, how to volley, when to pass it in, etc. etc., you probably will not get enough quality reps until you are older.

Question on playoff seeding with the Europa south and north division, do they rank based on pts/game played or how they finished in their division? Top 3 pts/gp were in Europa north.

Last year they used pts/gp to seed the brackets for Europa teams playing Champions division playoff bracket
Example:
U16 Season Results - http://scdslsoccer.com/schedules/Fall2015/76084793.html
U16 Playoff Bracket - http://www.scdslsoccer.com/schedules/2015Playoffs/80762436-br.html

B03 Champions Division teams will be seeded 1-8, then it'll be pts/gp for Europa teams seedings. If they use that same format it would be: #9 TFA, #10 Strikers South Bay, #11 Pats LA, etc. ... the two wildcards would be Nomads and Pats Irvine White. With the latter playing #1 seed Slammers Godinez.
 
Possible seedings:
If they rank 1-8 in Champions then seed the Europa North, South division top 3 teams by points, and then 2 wildcards by points.

1. CDA Godinez Black
2. SDSC Navy
3. CDA Vargas
4. West Coast Kirsch
5. Pats Irvine
6. LAUFA Reserve
7. Temecula Valley
8. DMCV Sharks
9. TFA-FCLA
10. Strikers SB
11. Pats - LA
12. Strikers Irvine
13. CDA Godinez White
14. Irvine Slammers Trembley
15. Nomads OC
16. Pats - Irvine White.
