Academy Vs. High School
Colten Clark
Choosing the right fit
Academy does not let players play high school soccer. They are afraid of risks involved with playing high school.
Why not both
Combining the two would have great benefits. Players would be developed and learn in different ways.
Overall
The sad truth is that players still have to choose between academy and high school. They have to choose to either represent a team that could potentially have more college looks or represent not only a team but a school and a community and play with long life friends.
