Another big problem is there are too many parent "Monday night quarterback" coaches getting licenses, because they have the $$$$, who know nothing about what it takes to become a pro-baller. It's easier to spot already developed talent than it is to actually develop the talent... let that one sink in.
maybe sometime you can do some exercises for 12 year old goalkeeper
Why did you say shut the f word up?
Pro tip: watch series at flixzone. Been using them for watching loads of movies lately.
@Jadiel Marvin Definitely, been using flixzone for months myself :D
My local usl team, London untied (which is about 1 hr 25 minute drive from home) was charging $250.00 for an open tryout spot in the middle of a global pandemic.
Lmao that’s actually comical. Many potential pros out there man. But many people won’t make it simply for reasons like this and imagine you pay 250 for what 2-3 days of training? With people who are also trialing? come to Europe Bro
@@ronrowefc it was for 1 day I believe if you perform well you’ll get a call back for the closed trial. And if you make the squad you get the $250 refund..
Yep I was gonna tryout too until I saw the fee, and most of the time they already have their team made it’s just for show
All about the money
From West Virginia by any chance? That fee would've been an absolute non starter for me growing up.
The pay to play club system sucks-so many talented kids will never be discovered because of monitory issues. Love the video though Coach Javi!
Agreed, how can we get the kids from inner cities interested when is so expensive to play?
*"The only place SUCCESS comes before WORK is in the DICTIONARY!"*
The only way you can accomplish anything is to have a strong mindset! Lets all smash our goals!!
Coach Javi,
As a Grass Roots coach myself I see this every day! So many good talented players seem to fall off or give up playing simply due to the fact they can not afford it. What can we do as a system to get this any better? I’ve been blessed enough to get up to my D-License so far but anything after that I’m really on my own dime. How can we as a grass roots effort make education more freely available to anyone who wants to learn? By which give some competition to the USSF system who in most cases is far behind what the FA or UEFA models are at?
I try to do my best by educate players who play for our club on the college route with hopes I can help them get into some D3 or D2 or even NAIA schools to give them a chance. I try to push academics as a way to show them they CAN get to college and play if they keep their heads down and do well in school to play. I’m always trying to network and find ways to give our kids who play for our small club ANY chance I can.
Would like your take on what all we CAN DO to make things better. Thank you for all your videos
Great video! Everything is about money this days 😩
Football/ soccer has now become a big business
@coachjavi I can relate to this problem 10000%, I’m 18 and throughout my years i was offered to play for some club teams but unfortunately due to my parents financial situation it made it impossible. Little do people know how much this affects mental health because I saw my dream of playing pro start to slowly fade away, you start to lose confidence and start to devalue yourself because you see your friends playing in good club teams, and getting the opportunity to play in the biggest college showcases, while I played AYSO for most of my life. For that reason I dedicated to watch TH-cam channels like yours and become elite so I can learn from the pros and develop my skills from there. And I know I am able to compete with those who played club but no matter how much I trained or how much I tried to learn the game of soccer My dream of becoming pro and even play college soccer is dying bc I don’t play club or play in a credible/competitive environment where I can can get recruited. I’m glad you made this video coach Javi to bring more awareness to this problem and hopefully it can be solved in the near future. God bless
Yo I can relate to your problem. I used to play on a good club team but it got expensive, so I just played high school soccer and rec. at least for my teams, since they weren’t high level soccer, my teammates played with passion and heart. Instead of their parents wasting $2,000 for there kid to touch a ball 3 times a week and get still get a college offer. Let’s break this system and get to the fucking top💪🏽⚽️❤️
@@lesliehickman3677 that’s good to hear!!!! Yeahh bro I still have the fire in me to reach my dreams, but in the American system it makes it really difficult to get an opportunity if you don’t have financial support. But hopefully I can gain enough courage to take risks for this goal. I wish you the best in your journey, and hopefully we and those who are in a similar situation beat the odds!!!!!❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽
Don’t give up guys! As I try to help as many kids as I can the best way to push forward with your dream is try to get good grades and give yourselves a chance at academic scholarships, yea its not always available to those in their senior years, but try to get some financial aid, go to a Junior College or Community College get good grades while you’re there, Look to transfer to a D3 or D2 School that has a good soccer program. Most high schools will allow you access to your game films, there’s so many videos online on how to edit them and put together a good highlight video. If you need any help I’m willing to help in anyway I can with any guidance.
this is exactly happening to me right now, can’t afford to play for a good level team due to parents financial issues and for high school, i’m not a very school-like type person which means grades depends if you’ll play or not. The coach won’t let me play and booted me off the team for it despite another person not doing as good but they’re still in the team. my dream is really fading away in front of my eyes and i can’t do anything here, it’s all about the money here sadly.
How did everyone turn out?
Hey coach Javi. I think your videos on drills and the ones which you just discuss and share information about football/soccer are really insightful. Thanks
NISA, NASL, USL, NPSL and their growth gets me excited for soccer in the US. More millionares and billionares are making teams in these lower divisions so that's good. I think these teams will be the ones to give more players a chance to go pro
Another banger from the best coach💪
can you make a video about tips for transferring from a 2 year college to a 4 year university? and maybe pros and cons of playing college vs just seeking out trials? great video i really enjoy your content.
This question comes up a lot but I definitely believe that anybody who has the talent and ability will be able to play at a high level without the money. Unfortunately, not every player can put themselves out their because they don't know where to start.
another point-it costs money to have a professionally made highlight video too. having money opens all of these doors for you. i watched teammates of mine travel to 8-10 different college id camps a year by plane while i was stuck at home working so i could pay to be on the club. it’s tough out here
As a parent to an 04 player, it is expensive af. There are many times ai would like to take him to ID camps so he can have that experience and receive feedback but the fees are crazy. Then there's travel and boarding costs. Most of the time I'm saving up just to cover club fees, hotels and food for tournaments.
Exactly my dream is to go pro and I’m only Good at soccer and the only way to make money in us is construction and academy which I never had money for
Great video Coach Javi. I’ve coached at clubs that have gone bankrupt and I’ve played at semi pro clubs that no longer exist because of all the high costs. I’ve also seen incredible talents because I currently am growing my own coaching business and work with a lot of young talents that are just incredible. And it saddens me to know that they will never get their own shot unless things fall perfectly into place for them.
You actually sound exactly like me when I talk about these things as well. I’m currently at a road block with my coaching credentials because of costs and a wedding I’ll have to pay for this summer.
It is all about the money in this country but that's what drives this country! Parents just need to try really hard, extra hard not to let it affect their boy or girl's passion for the game of futbol!! Find pickup games, pop up at fancy practices till they kick you out or notice your child is no scrub lol and especially be super thankful for coaches like coach Javi giving us game on TH-cam!! Very good video thank you thank you
In my mind, the pay to play system in the US is a simple thought exercise. The only reason we have pay to play is because we have the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and MLS. Like the rest of the world, if we only focused on the MLS, we could facilitate more talent in the sport like everyone else. The pay to play is the best system we have, for now. Traditionally, the path to be a professional in any sport in the US is through high school and college.
At New Orleans Dynamo Football Club we have put in place Pay Less to play programs which has helped but definitely still have a problem in the US.
In Finland my club costs about 1500 per year plus travel. It can add up to about 2000-2500 and my team isn't even one of the more expensive teams.
The trains in background at the stadium is so sick
Any tips on AX soccer tryouts??
Can u do a video on the sports coaching course in college please
I had no knowledge of your amazing keeper skills
I would like to hear about the schedule a player needs to have to practice and go pro!
I think a few things causing the lack of top performance of US soccer is 1) not enough investment at the pro level, which leads to 2) other more lucrative sports picking up the best athletes, 3) pay to play at the youth level filtering out talent who are not affluent, 4) back to #2 too much multi-sport playing at the youth level waters down their skill development compared to other countries where many youth devote their lives to soccer, 5) top youth leagues catering more towards college recruiting and not enough towards the professional game. I left out the emphasis towards winning at the youth level because i often find that to be a red herring and all the kids i know would rather play with something on the line than having every game they play mean nothing to anyone.
Totally agree, rich parents can play high level vs poor parents. Starting at 15 years most start to work because everything is expensive. Travel and club fees are to high so is really hard to afford it. Some clubs help to some really good players but still is expensive to travel. And some already have a job. So is really hard to move free in tournaments around USA.
Out of topic but can someone recommend me the best ball for for 60 or like 2 ball for 60 dollar
There has to be a solution right? Bc it should really come down to how good you are.
Amazing video coach⚽👍👏
Have Moy in some more videos!! He is hella funny!!!
Bro, my bank is broken. My boy is top tier. Glass ceiling needs a hammer 🔨
I’m a junior in hs right now and I’m the most dedicated I’ve been in a while, but I can’t afford college do idk how I’m supposed to make it. Plz help coach Javi
Maybe look into playing juco. Junior colleges are usually pretty cheap
@@bradybarrett7603 and then what?
@@Sergio-wm5du after that, hoping for a full scholarship, or atleast a big amount coffered. If you’re good enough, you will be seen man!
@@hugo4935 thx!
I’m 20 and this may I’m going to try out for pro with AX soccer... I love soccer been playing it my whole life but unfortunately the money to make pro is a lot and this year I’m going to try it out. Wish me luck
ax soccer tours is a big money grab. good luck to you tho!
@@jonasluskeysanders8258 I wish there was an easier way
Did u pass
I live in Canada and it’s worse here , paying lots of money and driving 90 min each way to play until covid . My son is 15 yrs old and has had trials with MLS teams . Want to take him to where I am from in Spain , but Covid got in the way . I think government needs to invest more money as do MLS teams in Canada. Teams in Spain have more players in their Academy system per age group . Canadian MLS teams only carry small amounts of players and then ID players in play to play league . Which means if you can’t afford $ 4000 a year you will not get a chance .
Q&A: Hey Javi I am a winger and I make good runs and find myself one on one with a keeper, sometimes having too much time to think about where to put the ball becomes a problem and sometimes I end up putting it straight at the keeper, how do I become more decisive and confident in those situations after practicing them?
Keep a distance from the keeper if you can. Make the keeper move and shoot when he is of balance. The best strikers i have played against can shoot whenever making it hard for the goalkeeper to decide. Im a goalkeeper practicing with pros every day, if you decide to do something go all in. PS: shooting hard helps if you can’t decide, hard for the goalkeeper to prevent rebounds 1v1.
@@larshenrik4370 thank you, I appreciate that, I’ll def keep that in mind!
@@EAZ2111 try to put yourself in similar situations in training as you creator in games and you will improve. Good luck!
I have my national and gk 3. Why spend thousands more when I'm already where I want to be. I wish our education wasn't so expensive but the coaching course fees are not discussed enough. I do scout high school soccer and pull good players from them but they miss the offers from the big schools
In my opinion they should focus on a few major cities and subsidize the cost for inner city kids. Cities like NYC, Chicago, Los Angeles and smaller cities such as Camden, NJ, St Louis, Stockton, Ca with crime issues. If the US did this there would be top 5 soccer country as soon as 10 years out. There would be a robust pipeilne into the MLS to maintain and build the league.
So I am currently in 9th grade (Freshman in HS). I know coaches can't contact you until 11th grade (Junior year in HS), but I know you can contact coaches whenever. What age do you think it's best to start contacting these coaches?
As soon as your highlight video is ready i think you can contact them
@@jeresainio4752 okay. thank you!
Even public school is messed up. In high school, the coach was also a coach in a travel program. When tryouts came he didn't pay too much attention and just picked the players he knew from travel. The whole system is messed up.
I couldn't agree with you more. But what's the solution? We know the problem but we never try to fix it... How would a club survive with no income from the players & players' parents?
My friend I agree with some of what you are saying here specially the part of cost but at the end sport still a business and me and you know how some people try to take advantage of sports people for political reasons which is a very uncomfortable situation
I have to say that the pay to play scam is ridiculous !! I have had that horrible experience.!! I totally agree that imagine all the talent that didn't have a shot because of this !! It makes me sad that this country has been doing this. No wonder soccer in the US is sooo far behind the times.
If you want to play soccer come to Germany. Club contributions are very low and once you are older even lower ranked Clubs pay YOU
This transfer window alone we’ve seen so many young Americans leaving the mls/academies to play in Europe. Brenden Aaronson and Caden Clark are the most promising in my opinion. Like you said, it’s just a matter of time before soccer is the #1 sport in America. We have too much talent.
LMAO forgot about Brasil, Uruguay and Argentina my man
@@yeh2248 I’m pretty sure i was just talking about America.
Drills for fullbacks
Did I make it in time to cop a jacket ? 😁
Ireland has a very bad pay to play system too it’s really hard for people who have little money
Ye just cause it’s not really the main sport over here either
Great video! Is twitter useful for being scouted
Yeah can you do tht
If they didnt have to pay to play maybe the country can make it a little farther in the world cup also
All club is like DA
Is kids who pay a bunch and have been there for like 10 yrs
Yeah because there not good as the ones who are not that much wealth
SHOW ME THE MONEY !!!!
The most talent players will get scholarships at these clubs and pay little to no fees but they’re might be players that are late bloomers and might not get the chance because they’re not as good at a certain age to get scholarships so these possibly good future players are losing out but at the end of the day the majority of really good talented players are going to get scholarships to good clubs. The problem is that we have a small pool of athletes choosing football over basketball, American football and baseball. Also the coaching in the USA is too controlling in my opinion and is outdated mostly copying old English style football focusing more on the physical aspect of the game imo
So where is the money supposed to come from then? We live in the northern part of the country and at least 6 to 8 months of the year we’re playing in a dome. That costs money. Coaches cost money.
It’s all well and good to complain about the system, but I’ve never seen anyone put forward a good solution to reduce costs for parents … and I’d love to not have to pay so much.
Coach where do you live at?
I think he lives up in Detroit
@@zacharynudel7458 what is your career man?
yeh good question also if you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
@@tiktoklegend2357 nothing yet, I’m 14 just trying to make it out of highschool and into d1 or move out to Europe somewhere and try and play there, keeping my options open
@@zacharynudel7458 same thing for me, but I just turned 15 and want to travel overseas somewhere in Europe to play right after I finish high school
I have very little hope for US soccer. The only thing the D course did for me was prevent me from getting more coaching jobs, and I've seen that with others to. Americans like to spend money and only think they are getting their value that way. I used Play Practice Play and was successful but got ridicule because I dont use every piece of equipment I could buy. I married a girl from South America and her dad coached professionally at one time, and a lot of the advice he gave me just wouldnt go over with parents here. For one, less yelling, he said soccer is abstract and the kids can't create if you are yelling and getting in their heads..........yet the non licensed jocks who were athletic in high school and scream are the ones I see getting coaching jobs in my little area. the D license is good, but being the big fish in a small pond holds more weight.
As far as costs, we moved back from South America for the public school system, but Im finding we would've been ahead and it cheaper to pay for a private school abroad and got the cheaper better soccer down there.
Why is the mls academy free then
I don't even wanna play anymore because of this
imagine all the folks in Latin America or third world countries including mexico if they had equal chances like here in America, not saying Mexico is better than America or America 2 Mexico vice versa, but it’s the beautiful game it belongs 2 everyone/anyone it’s not a competiton all love no hate
The United States is a business not a country
If u are good enough they will give u a scholarship so get better and try next time if they are too tier talent like u guys say they will hand them a scholarship like I said ..
Solutions?, Solutions?, Solutions? No one offers solutions because where does money come from? If you want charity, or philanthropy, or corporate solutions or taxes then go plead with those entities. Offer options rather than complain about a system that infuses millions of dollars into the system. Get this straight, if you are good enough prove it on the field and it will be free. There are tens of thousands of free spots for those who win them.
WHY us government don't establish national academy like Qatar. Qatar won the Asia cup when they are only a littlie bit more than one million people. but us above 300 millions, then maybe there will be a chance to create very strong squad for their national team. they have now pulisic playing for Chelsea, there will be more professional players in near future if they think in that way.
The US has better things to focus on than soccer
Like war?
All of us knew Brazil country through soccer.
@@javierramirez2716 like what fuck up health systeme or mass shutings hhhhhhhhhhh
You indicates that in other countries there are free youth soccer development academies, but in the US parents have to pay $3500 per child per year. So how do these other countries pay for these free academies. Among the world soccer powerhouse are under-developed, third-world agrarian countries. They have a lot of people living below the poverty line. So how do these countries pay for these free academies. The word free does not mean free. Someone has to pay the bills. The US is a developed country and has a large middle class where paying $3500 per child per year is prohibitive. I like to know how these other countries, many of whom are under-developed third-world agrarian societies, offer free soccer academies? A lot of South American countries fall into this category and they still produce top players. Pele said that Brazil has a lot poor people who have no other career opportunities but to play soccer in the streets with other children. Yet it is these children who live in poverty, they can't afford to go to school, they play soccer all day, and a handful of children become world class soccer players. But only a handful of children make it to the top European Soccer Leagues. How can the Brazilian government possibly pay for free soccer academies? The Brazilian government simply do not have the budget to pay for socialist utopian programs like free soccer academies that pay for everything the student athletes need. If the US government has problem paying for this then how can the Brazilian or Argentinian government fund these socialist-utopian free soccer academy programs? It is wonderful to help promising young athletes reach their potential but the ugly truth is somebody has to pay for it. Are the Brazilian and Argentinian people paying for these academies with their income tax? Are the professional football clubs paying for it? Are the soccer clubs able to pay for these programs? If yes then wonderful. But I think that would be very difficult as most clubs spend most of the revenue paying soccer players in their top division.
Pay to play & pay to coach in the US, It is a disgrace. The way they organize soccer in America is ridiculous. Will take a hundred years for us to get in to a world cup quarter final . Didn't have to be like that. The sabotage starts when they switch the name from "football to soccer".
Americans will think anything but this system is socialism 😂
