It offers a candid, insider's look at the good, the bad, and the ugly of club soccer, including the real benefits of participating in club soccer. Not only will this book help you better navigate the intense, competitive landscape, but it will help you to make better decisions in difficult situations, so that your child and club team can be successful.
