You should preface that you do not have any first hand knowledge of what will happen for surf for olders. Like you said, this is a place where people come for information, not misinformation. In your case it seems to cause drama purely for entertainment value. I get it, you're bored, nothing else for you to do during this pandemic.
exactly !! They have alot of fun
If your kid is a first generation college student or disenfranchised there are also more formal programs also. Cal and UCLA are backups for kids that excel in middle college high school.Looks like it if you are a first-time student and attend full-time. It's also free to HS students who can get dual enrollment credits.
California joins a handful of other states that provide community college tuition-free
California will provide free tuition for two years of community college to first-time, full-time California students.www.cnn.com

An old teammate played at CSUF from 93-94 if I have my years correct.
It was way cheaper for me too. I hopped around from JC to JC ((go figure)) in the 80s and then finally got to a school in Pomona. Four classes short of my BS in Kinesiology. I thought it was PE but I got fooled and I was taking classes with Pre Med students. I had one Professor who graded on a curve and I happen to be in the class with all the next Drs. I got an F and never took the class again. I owed $10,000 and paid it all off before I got married. My wife owed $20K because she studied in Germany for a year and I ended up having to pay if off for her when we got married. Today, some of these kids owe a small house payment and no job work at. My son just signed a lease for a frat house at SDSU for next Fall. $900 a month for one room, no food. He asked if I would help him with some food money and I said, "I ate Top Ramen dude and so can you." He was sad but then said he will work part time for his entrainment funds and a new car he wants to save for. I told him I would like to save for a car too but now I have to pay for his food. No one helped me, no one except Mr Pell and Mr Stanford. JC is the way to go. My dd is seriously think of taking classes online at Orange Coast College when she turns 17. Forget AP, just take some online JC courses.
Years???? I did back in 2013-2015. Then I was asked kindly not to come on here let alone post. It was 100% a no or else. One dude told me he was thinking of buying the socal soccer forum. They all lurke here and some even post. I know them all too well. Regarding where my dd is going to go to college, I honestly have no idea. She does want to go and play soccer. The net is all over and she is taking a wait and see approach. Her video is old so were in the process of replacing 2018 stuff with 5 new highlights from ECNL Showcase. She has emailed and has received some really nice feed back. One full ride ((as long as she carries 3.7)) and one who is is 100% interested and so is she. I can't name schools out of respect to my goat. Both of these programs are top schools. One is knocking on the door for NCAA invite and the other one goes almost every year. Lot's of potential at both. She has her hope one or two to just show some interest. I think they will when they see her play with all the other top goats her age.
most of the users freaking out have ulittles with pro careers in their future.
The fact that it is fun is exactly why people play HS soccer. That's one of the best things about it. If the players aren't having fun playing club soccer then that's a problem. Being fun is not the negative that you make it out to be.
Really? The future WNT star and I are in hermit mode right now. Missing Surf is a bummer, but she still has enough time to collect a half dozen blue jackets.
A glimpse of humanity. Well said.
On the boys' side, this seems less of a factor, at least from the kids I have known who have had a choice. Not sure why, but one common complaint I have heard from top male players is that the kids in school soccer spent most of practice fooling around and not listening to their coach. That leads to running or chaos, neither of which is much fun to serious players who just want to play. When you add in the fact that HS soccer isn't getting many fans anyway compared to football and basketball (at least in LA), the attraction isn't all that great. Maybe it's different in Orange County or San Diego.
I am happy for your daughter’s impressive collection of hardware. At the same time, I’m happy that coaches and scouts aren’t making recruiting decisions based on that ‘cause my player has exactly zero medals!
.Bro, that was me 100%. Cut me some slack. I had coaches from England telling me so much BS I believed. Life goes on. I tell guys like Luis to just wait until they turn 15.
