It is crucial to heed the concerns of the American soccer fans regarding the over-commercialization of your exclusive franchise model promoted through your exclusive affiliates. Moreover, the USMNT should be managed by genuine soccer professionals, independent of the insular, uncompetitive MLS. No marketing strategy can rectify the situation until these fundamental changes are made. Return the $50 million earmarked for the training center from MLS and begin functioning as an authentic federation dedicated to the betterment of American soccer. Additionally, any affiliate league executives , including Don Garber, should step down from the board. Sport represents sporting excellence, not just financial excellence.

1 - Focus on player development at youth soccer, starting with basic skills, then tactics, rotations, etc. Physical development should come last. And this applies to players and coaches 2 - Programs should not be funded by the players - today you only play if you can pay. 3 - Bring in coaches who really know the sport, especially at youth soccer. Today, you can become a coach after a 4h course and there are coaches at youth soccer that don't even know the rules of the game, which means they don't even watch games. If they don't even watch games, how can they know the sport, let alone coach?

Congratulations! We can help your grassroots efforts
