Thesis Statement: The organization of youth soccer teams by birth year rather than graduation year, created by “US Soccer” has more downfalls than benefits.
The first reason why youth soccer teams should go by graduation year rather than birth years is because, middle schoolers going into highschool leaves half of a team alone for three months. This time difference (three months) can affect the relationships between the players that are gone to play high school soccer have a weaker relationship with the team. Then that time can also cause the relationships between the players who do not play high school soccer, because they are still in middle have a stronger bond with the coach and other players(stronger relationship).

Peak high velocity is when a boy or girl is at their highest peak with fitness.PHV stands for peak high velocity it’s when young men and women go through puberty and start to develop their adult features. ”PHV is the highest point of growth acceleration”(Para. 9 Després). PHV is also how coaches will usual pick out the toughest, quickest, or strongest players by physical means for a team.My friends younger brother tried out for a club called Snohomish United. He’s a smaller kid out of the bunch in his age, but he taller and quicker then most. Coaches will always pick teams by bio-bonding and Bath university writes ”Strength and speed aren 't the only advantages of early puberty. Players are spotted earlier and experience success more often. They receive more support, encouragement and access to coaching and training resources. They also have the opportunity to compete at the highest levels”(Para. 12 Faraway) Coaches will be bio-bonding based off of physical looks of kids. But since they are going by birth year and not graduation year, some kids will have had “extra year” of development even though they were born the same year. This is a big disadvantage for kids who are younger but born in the same year, “The focus on physical ability can also be a disadvantage for early-maturing footballers. Coaches and scouts may believe that early physical advantages will carry on through adulthood. This creates unrealistic expectations for a young player 's potential”(Para.14
