Weather you are trying to go from high school to college or you are going from college to professional ranks, the most important thing for you to get to where you want to go is exposure. Soccer in the US was not really considered a sport or should i say a sport for Americans. As a result, it made it hard for people like me and you with aspirations of one day becoming a professional. Then on Dec. 17, 1993 the MLS was formed fulfilling a promise to FIFA and the US Soccer Federation, to establish a "Division One" professional soccer league in exchange for hosting the 1994 FIFA World Cup. The league kicked off in 1996 with 10 teams. This monumental historical event gave footballers all over the US an opportunity to prove themselves as professional athletes. More importantly it provided them with tangible hope, that one day they could fulfill there dream of becoming a professional, and hopefully give back just a little bit of what the game gave them. Sorry got off point a little there. Just very passionate about the game and what it has brought to my life. I hope that this blog can at least guide you in the right direction so you to can experience what I have and go beyond.
