Getting inquiries about signups. Unfortunately, registrations are closed. Going with 3 divisions this year. We don't have enough vols to supt demand. 1st time in 6yrs we don't have our 16u. Sat was bittersweet. It had the feel of a championship day but I know many are left out.

@AmericaSCORESBA @AspenInstSports @mercnews @AmericaSCORESBA Its great to offer free soccer programs to low-income youth, but how many college recruiters attend those soccer events? Access vs. Opportunity. If we have access, support should be on creating opportunities. We shifted its working for us. But we need support

We've experienced 3 eras, "Free Play", "Everyone Gets a Trophy" & "Tournament Teams" In all eras, there was a societal push to go in a different direction. We're saying that maybe, the right way to fix youth sports is to find a balance that includes all 3. #mvp360philosophy

We can change a lot of whats wrong with innercity youth sports by redirecting resources 2developing athletes. In doing so, we create role models, who in turn, will inspire other kids to pursue sports. #opportunity #madetoplay #projectplay #DontRetireKid #inspirechange #InvestInUs
