[Date] 4 days 20 hours ago [Title] Given the limited [Body] 
Given the limited scholarships that NCAA soccer teams have, particularly for men's soccer where most scholarships are fractional, those coaches are flat out lying to the parents. Fortunately haven't seen that at my kids' club. They have had kids go onto the U-15 and U-17 national teams in recent years, and they certainly sell that, though in a relatively low key way (it's probably enough to say "we have 2 former players on national teams"). I agree about the community thing, particularly in small town/suburban areas, where high school sports form so much of a community's broader identity. That's the world I grew up in. My kids are growing up in the city (NYC) and that aspect is obviously totally absent from our daily lives, it probably only heightens the power of club sports.
