In reality if your kid can help them win you could be a horror show of a parent and they will still take your kid.


I agree they recruit athletes but to imply they are uninterested in goal-scorers or kids with great game sense is misguided. I do believe it is true they will avoid, when possible, parents who are toxic. I have seen coaches walk away from showcase games when a sideline parent is going nuts. Ain't no one got time for that.
